Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 June 2025

Debate

Ethics and Integrity Commission

Contribution

My Lords, as we are the unelected House, I completely agree that it is for the electorate—I have faced them several times; they liked and then did not like me—to decide who they seek to represent them and to have an understanding of the values of those people. I thank my noble friend, but we have very clear processes in place to protect standards. It is important the general public has faith in them too.
