My reform of the house of Lords.
Every week, one Lottery ticket winner will be given a seat in the HoL.
They will keep the seat for 5 years, and after that time will be given help in returning to the real world if necessary – similar to the army or TA. Accommodation will be provided in London. The salary will be more than adequate.
Accepting / Taking the seat will be optional, and members will be inducted in batches, with training on responsibilities & constitutional matters.
This way we have a more representative HoL which will be self-funding, ‘cos middle-class tossers like me may buy tickets for the chance of joining the HoL. instead of just for the money.
Constructive criticism, please?
