I support an elected House of Lords because I believe that those who make the laws of the land should be elected by those who have to obey the laws of the land. Clegg
That would be the House of Commons, Nick. The “Lords” scrutinises and amends the gibberish that comes out of the elected House.
An unelected House of Lords flies in the face of democratic principles and public opinion. Clegg
Wind. An elected Lords would become a second house of amoral PR-types and lawyers.
The Lords is a mess, but Clegg’s way is completely wrong IMO. [and I’m an ardent Liberal BTW]
