New members for the House of Lords



Large numbers of new peers are due to be appointed for the House of Lords in order to reflect the balance of the House of Commons after the election. For some this means an enormous House of Lords, just as the demand for political reform is fed up of politicians, for others, fairness, particularly for the Lib Dems who will need to appoint many more peers. See here for the Daily Politics explanation of how the process works. What do you think? Will this make reform of the House of Lords more or less likely?
