Lord Mandelson's Convenience

It seems that British law is now being made entirely for the convenience of Peter Mandelson.

Anything that might make Lord Mandelson's life easier in any way, shape or form is, of course, A Bad Thing That Must Be Resisted At All Costs. It is every British democrat and patriot's duty to make this odious man's life as difficult as possible, by any means within the law.

To give life peers the right to resign their peerages to seek office in the House of Commons is to treat the House of Lords as a convenience; a fitting end to a body which has been so passive in the face of its own destruction it now deserves to be destroyed, but which should live on only because its existence is an obstacle in Peter Mandelson's path.

That fact alone should guarantee that it survives for another millenium.
