Remove the automatic right of bishops to sit in the House of Lords

Petition Details

The Archbishops of Canterbury and York, and the Bishops of London, Durham and Winchester, together with 21 other diocesan bishops, have an automatic right to sit in the House of Lords.

Additional Information

We think this is no longer appropriate and should be changed. We do not think that bishops should have the automatic privilege of law making powers.
