UK Labour Party To Promise to Reform House of Lords
14 March 2010 | Senate
The BBC reports that the UK Labour Party will promise to reform the House of Lords if elected in the upcoming general election. According to the report, the proposal will see a 300 member body, elected by proportional representation every 3 general elections.
The Conservative Party and the Liberal Democrats are also on the record of supporting a more democratic upper chamber. If the United Kingdom reforms its upper house, I believe that Canada will follow suit shortly after.
