From 20th July 2011: Lord Grocott puts a written question to the government: "To ask Her Majesty's Government how many representations have been received from the public in response to the House of Lords reform draft Bill and accompanying White Paper."

Lord Strathclyde, leader of the House of Lords, sounds progressively more ridiculous as he explains the lamentable public support of the government's plans for an elected House of Lords.

Speakers:
Lord Grocott (Lab)
Lord Strathclyde (Con) - Leader of the House
Lord Tyler (Lib Dem)
Lord Hughes of Woodside (Lab)
Lord Cormack (Con)
Lord Kakkar (XB)
Lord Richard (Lab)
