@PrincessLally I believe some foreigners would gladly have a teenager like susskind run their country, I for instance would advice the Italians to do so ^^

There should be more hereditary peers. Life peers just politicize things and take away the independent nature of the House of Lords. The Lords is there to look at a bill in an unbiased, non-partisan way and make it better; therefore, it must always exist.

I believe in having the Lords but having perhaps a few lesser of them and freeing up seats for specialists. So there are constant specialists whom are called in during a debate on agriculture (oh wait the agricultural powers have been devolved to the European Parliament) but for an example, they will give their opinions and scrutinies the legislation before hand. So instead of granting them peerage they are special scruteneers.

Not that you're jumping to conclusions about what kind of guy he is, of course...
It is a *debating* competition.

That's why the US has a) an appointed cabinet b) senators appointed by governors if they need to be replaced and c) a massive problem with the amount of money needed to be elected. Very democratic.
And there's no elite in US politics of course, dear me no....
