Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 March 2025

Debate

House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Bill

Contribution

However, the noble Lord, Lord Blencathra, raises a further interesting point about the title itself. We know that the honour of a knighthood can be removed. It strikes me that there may be appropriate circumstances in which the conferral of a peerage should be subject to the same outcome, depending on the circumstances.
