Major plans for social care reform will not be included in Labour’s manifesto, according to reports, with House of Lords reform also potentially set to be scaled back.
Pretty sad. There is a massive cry for reform and yet we have no one willing to take the bull by the horns.
I think reform is better than abolishment. Honestly, I think life peerages are a good idea because then you can stick to stuff without worrying about your career. I think they should be more appointed though based on merit and background, eg, former university and school principals, people in various other key private industries, nhs staff, policing, etc
When the lord’s is working they do a pretty good job of holding the government In check, but that shouldn’t mean that heavy reform isn’t needed.
