You must be the most ineffective politician ever. You were useless as Foreign Secretary (Iraq), you were useless as Home Secretary (Gen Pinochet) and you are useless as Leader of the House of Commons. Who knows why Gordon Brown wants you to run his election campaign (he must be looking for a challenge!)

i say get rid of the house of lords and make MPs more accountable and also make it law where all MPs get a free vote and not get whipped. they may actually think their policys through then. if the house of commons was fit for purpose then the house of lords would be a complete waste of time and MONEY.
reform the house of commons and scrap the house of lords.

House of Lords: Why get into politics?by UKParliament8,866 views
I say return the house to its original state and bring back the hereditaries- if labour were serious about democratic reform the house wouldn't be in the mess its in now, ten years after expelling the hereditaries. It was a rash act for purely political gain and has spoilt an institution that had worked perfectly for centuries.

You can't get rid of this country's old tradition. They only want to change the houseof lords for thier own good. Itwill be a disaster if it changes!
