Sir Keir Starmer pledges to abolish House of Lords in first term as prime ministerBut Tory peer Lord Norton urged caution over 'Big Bang reform' to parliament's second chamber after suggestions it should replaced with elected representatives. Will be very much appreciated and the beginning of democracy into the anachronistic system whereby unelected are made the heads of state Why? Good. But I do think it’s important that the Government is able to replace the HoL with something which employs very knowledgeable people within certain sectors which can help Parliament make decisions.

Keir Starmer Dashes Jeremy Corbyn's Hopes Of Returning As Labour MP“I don't see the circumstances in which that can happen,' the Labour leader said. What a petty individual Starmer is Simon Heffer on LBC once said Corbyn wanted to bring back Auschwitz. jeremycorbyn was correct when he said the scale of the problem was dramatically overstated by much of the media. Is Starmer saying Corbyn can only rejoin if he agrees with Heffer? I wish someone would dash the hopes of Starmer remaining leader.

Keir Starmer must plot a bold route back to Europe for Britain\n\t\t\tLet our global subject matter experts broaden your perspective with timely insights and opinions you\n\t\t\tcan’t find anywhere else.\n\t\t Somebody needs to tell the truth, Brexit was all lies, and that it’s just a damage limitation exercise now. Until that day the country will be built on sand. Just one leader after another promising unicorns, as around and around we go, whilst the country declines. Starmer will take the knee to Brussels and beg forgiveness for the UK's errant ways. We'll be shackled once more to the bloated, dysfunctional, unelected EU before the decade is out. 😂
