We demand the abolition of the unelected and unaccountable house of lords.
17.4 million people voted to leave the EU in June 2016, the Lords have demonstrated that they are determined to thwart the will of the people, and not accept the democratic vote that took place.
It is time for an elected 2nd chamber that is accountable, and not based on their own vested interests.
The house of lords are unaccountable and unelected. They have demonstrated with their votes on the EU withdrawal bill that they are determined to thwart the will of the people and deny a democratically decided result. Their actions demonstrate the urgent need for an elected chamber which respects democracy and the voice of the people.
