Debate

House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Bill

Contribution

So why are the Government leaving the Bishops alone? Why are they picking on the hereditaries but not following their rationalist logic and having a crack at the Bishops as well? It has been suggested that this is because the Bishops feel tenderly towards the Labour Party. That is an unworthy suggestion that we should try to put out of our minds if we can.
