How on Earth is a demented bastard like Claire Fox going to end up in the House of Lords? Replace the Upper House with 300 citizens chosen at random every twenty-four months, you get £45,000 a year, no tax, plus expenses. If you aren't a primary care giver or you have some kind of medical reason for not serving it's up against the wall. Alright, maybe you get thrown in the clink for a couple of months. Tell me that wouldn't be better than the current shambles? |

Juries are citizens selected at random to adjudicate on a person's guilt, as advised by the judiciary and clerks of the court. Magistrates are the same except you apply to be one. Why can't we apply a similar system to the Lords? |
