Make the Lords work for their money
I want a system introduced in the House of Lords to monitor their actions while at work, to make sure they actually work for a living like the rest of us in the Country have to!
Why is this important?
As I understand it, the Lords get paid £300 or thereabouts per day in the House of Lords and all they need to do for this money is to sign their name. They can then go home or go to the cheap bar in the House and have a drink, pop into the House and listen for 5 minutes or even pop in and go to sleep. I think if they come to work they should actually have to work.
