Abolish the outdated over paid unelected House of Lords

Petition Details

We have over 800 unelected Lords and Ladies claiming £300 a day for sitting in the House of Lords having sway over our elected members of Parliament. This has to end as democracy is none existent if the unelected can legally go against the wishes of the majority to support their vested interests.

Additional Information

When the unelected House of Lords out number the Elected Member's of Parliament then democracy in this country is a farce.
