It has emerged that a proposal to save taxpayers some money by making peers and MPs share a catering department has been rejected “because the Lords feared that the quality of champagne would not be as good if they chose a joint service”.
Austerity, it seems, is only for the peasants. Meanwhile their unelected "betters" slurp champagne and quibble over its quality.
I can't think of a better reason why the Lords need to go. Time to erase this relic of feudalism, and make a start on erasing privilege.
