[b]hedda wrote:[/b] [quote]very odd to have an unelected Upper House although I'm rather partial to the idea that the "elders" of a community be given a leading role. What puts me off though is that the Lords have become victim to crass political shenanigans such as the ghastly [b]John Mann[/b] being elevated by the Tories as a so-called "antisemitism csar", a role which he seems to have assumed is to attack left wing websites not critical enough of Labour, the party that supported and built his career. There is bound to be a [b]Lord Tom Watson[/b] at some stage. Yet again why I now love the Oz political system which is about as fair as it gets with a [b]Senate[/b] with the 2 major parties almost equal and a substantial body of independents like the[b] Greens[/b] who can nip in the bud any extreme legislation and where half are elected at election and errant Senators usually booted by the public. It seems every time the public decide to change a government at election they ensure the Senate is the opposite as a sort of handbrake on extremism. The Lords sounds incredibly bloated although I'm very reluctant for any serious change as I have to keep arguing with other old lefties ( who look much older than me even if they're not and certainly not as pretty :kiss: ) that the [b]Royal Family[/b] is Britain's best tourist attraction and should be retained even though a [b]Republic[/b] is obviously more democratic except..along can come a Donald Trump. :ohmy: :S But change is inevitable isn't it?. And that change is more likely these days to come from the crass and vulture Tories, now the party of Real Estate Agents and Bookies runners (fine people) who have np sense of history as exampled that all British Eccentricity has now been totally banned. #Prove me wrong and point out a living eccentric !! Can you imagine Lords today surviving and not falsely accused of something ghastly such as the lovable [b]Norman St Stevas[/b] who once invited me to a party he hosted in Westminster for the [b]Village People[/b] or the dandy [b]Leo Abse[/b]. They'd end up appearing in the Mail accused of being habitues of [b]Elm Guest House[/b] signing in under names Like [b]Mabel[/b] or [b]Samantha[/b]. Some reckon [b]Jacob Rees Moog[/b] is "eccentric" but he's more like an undertaker who would depress other undertakers and the [b]LA Times[/b] ludicrously named [b]Boris Johnson[/b] as a "British eccentric" with his contrived hair and blatant lies which perfectly examples my theory that there are no eccentrics left. I will however concede that the glorious [b]Michael Fabricant[/b] of the [i]Most Luscious locks in Westminster[/i] is a [i]border-line[/i] eccentric.

JK, is there a block button on here?
I have already twigged some people here are not here to help.
I am sorry I hurt your feelings, Bookworm. It was truly not my intention.
There is unfortunately no block button, so feel free to scroll on by.
