She looks like any 50/50 mixed
She's not white lmao
lords are protected by parliamentary privelege just like the commons
Isnt the privilege just as fragile as the rest of our laws?
Thus they can just decide to not do that now and do.something else?
looks like they'll all harumph at him, but there'll be nothing they can do legally
what was it he was supposed to have said?
Idk
inb4 it was innocuous boomer trolling
oh ffs
he called her "queer"
called it
Gay SNP MP gets called a "queer", and goes "REEEEEEE!"
All respect for Rees Mogg GONE
Yep, he has given in
Given the relentless class-based shit and accusations of nazism Mogg gets, it's hard to see why he even entertains these clowns
Spose he's just trying to be the bigger man
*FIX BAYONETS*
ha ha ha
TBH the HoL should be abolished
It should be reformed, abolishing it leaves a pretty sizeable vacuum
aka abolish
Reformation would keep the core ideas intact, that's not what should happen
idk the house of regions & nations feels like a good idea
seems like it addresses every grievance appropriately
Can we abolish Mayday as a Bank Holiday?
We could just use the Commons alone
We don't necessarily need a second house
You'd need one to keep the other in check, which is the Lord's supposed purpose
The Lords can't do that anyway though
The Commons can easily bypass the Lords
Ye, 'supposed', but having one house is a bad idea if there isn't a way of checking and vetting what they pass
I suppose you could have the Monarch do that, but I don't think that'd last long
What we could do actually is have one house elected by FPTP and another elected by PR
yah, tbh the commons can bypass the lords, but the lords have a microphone to sound alarm bells that can fuck up the commons optics
The issue is PR still would not work then. Because all that would happen law would be made in the tory commons, then when its passed up to the second house that would be PR (and therefore 45% approx tory) it would fail. You would have the same issue that we had with BRexit and a minority government
And no laws would get passed, the opposition would rail on the government saying "see, cant do anything" and eventually they would win by blocking everything else
PR only works when parties are not polarised, and it is fair to say Labour, LibDems, SNP, and nearly every other opposition party is so polarised they would never work *with* the government unless they got everything they wanted- which isn't how coalitions etc are supposed to work
