Britain Plans to Combat 700 Years of Nepotism in Its Governmental System by Ending Hereditary Peerships in the House of Lords

The elephant in the room obviously remains all the other unelected members of the House of Lords, who are thwarting Britain's attempt over the past 700 years to try to be, and not just pretend to be, a democracy. They are the ones who need to be sent home, to start working for their livelihood instead of leeching off taxpayers' money.
In a bold move to eradicate a 700-year-old vestige of nepotism, reminiscent of the most corrupt governmental systems in the third world, the UK government proposes a historic overhaul to remove all hereditary peers from the House of Lords.

This archaic, racist, and anti-democratic system allowed 92 non-elected, privileged white men, predominantly around the age of 70 and often lacking any relevant talents, to control and shape the nation’s laws—against and above the will of the people—simply due to their lineage.

This decision marks the culmination of reforms initiated in 1999 under Tony Blair's administration, which already curtailed the rights of hereditary peers but left a select group in a transitional state. Critics have long attacked the existence of hereditary peers as indefensible and fundamentally undemocratic, arguing that legislative power should not be wielded merely through birthright.

The upcoming legislation, expected to pass next year, will not only strip these peers of their undemocratic privileges but also remove ceremonial positions, like those of the Earl Marshal and the Lord Great Chamberlain, from the upper chamber. Nick Thomas-Symonds, Minister for the Constitution, heralds this as a "landmark reform." He asserts that the persistence of hereditary influence in law-making is an outdated practice, incompatible with modern democratic values. This measure aims to align the House of Lords more closely with the principles of democratic governance, where positions of power are earned, not inherited.

Once this law is enacted and the nepotists are expelled from the House of Lords, Britain will take a crucial step forward, shedding its current guise as an undemocratic and nepotistic state and moving towards genuine democratic governance. The elimination of these unelected privileged elites will end their luxury lifestyle funded by taxpayers, including wasteful expenditures on cocktails and lavish lifestyles, ensuring that power truly rests with the people.

The elephant in the room is all the other unelected members of the House of Lords, who are thwarting Britain's attempt over the past 700 years to try to be, and not just pretend to be, a democracy. They are the ones who need to be sent home, to start working for their livelihood instead of leeching off taxpayers' money.

Less leeches and dictators in UK governmental system, means the first step towards real and genuine democracy.
