Cameron is about to announce new peers which will take the numbers over 800. They are entitled to up to £300 per day for simply signing in -no active part necessary - plus expenses of up to about £30000 per year.

Looking at the latest disgusting scandel- apparently he is refusing to resign!!!!! Do grans think reform is far overdue?

It's not necessarily the quality of the apples, but the cost of keeping them and the value for money, paid by the tax payer.

Bad apples in every institution. The problem with the HOL is the democratic gap, similar to the EU commission.
