House of Lords Reform

Proceeding contribution from Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on House of Lords Reform.
We argued for a voting system that would have allowed the House to make a succession of preferential votes. It is not our fault that that system of voting is not available. The House must therefore make a choice. We have made what we want clear, and I hope that progressive colleagues vote for a substantially, or predominantly, elected House of Lords.
