House of Lords Reform

Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 14 January 2016. It occurred during Backbench debate on House of Lords Reform.

I agree very much with what the hon. Lady is saying. The hon. Member for Spelthorne (Kwasi Kwarteng) suggested earlier that this subject never came up on the doorstep. Does she agree that that is because people’s first concerns are jobs, housing, poverty and the health service? However, if people are asked about the House of Lords, many would say that we should abolish it.
