Include representatives for religions besides Christianity into House of Lords
The House of Lords has 26 bishops, representing Christianity as a religion. Even though the House of Lords is unelected and less powerful than the House of Commons, it is still of importance. Therefore, it is only right to add in other religious representatives, such as: Islam, Judaism, Sikhism

It would really help if you sign this petition, as it would create a more modern and fair House of Lords, whereby other religious leaders will get their say. I really hope you consider this.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
