House of Lords Reform

Proceeding contribution from Chris Law (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 14 January 2016. It occurred during Backbench debate on House of Lords Reform.

I am delighted to join the Chamber to hear my hon. Friend’s speech at such late notice. Does he agree not only that this debate is vital—it is a sheer disappointment that more Members are not here—but that it is incredibly perverse that we are about to reduce the number of democratically elected MPs in this Chamber from 650 to 600, at the same time as the House of Lords is ever increasing?
