This way the democratic legitimacy of our beloved Commoners would not be undermined. The 25% appointed would be drawn from a list of 1,000 names put together every four years by a truly independent body looking for experience and expertise in numerous fields. Every four years on television we would then have The National Lord Lottery Live in order to randomly select the Lords required. This would be presented by Dale Winton wearing a smoking jacket and a large pair of pink bunny rabbit carpet slippers. This, in turn, would help to clean up British politics by bringing a new meaning to the phrase 'Let's Spin 'Em'.Sir Edward Heathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10015408685370714759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-16211438236515228622007-03-08T02:03:00.000+00:002007-03-08T02:03:00.000+00:00This is getting a bit worrying.

I could be wrong though.Nich Starlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04237390959601973501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-38029729185440189072007-03-07T23:25:00.000+00:002007-03-07T23:25:00.000+00:00What did Lembit do before ?What did Lembit do before ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
