Lord Watson

[brawburd]

Should he be stripped of peerage after conviction? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/4269808.stm

 Why should he be any different to archer, remember him?

[smudge]

As far as I'm concerened, both Watson & Archer should have been stripped of their peerage!

[smudge]

*concerned - sorry these pumped up idiots make me so angry!

[undercovers]

NO! when he comes out i'll be the first to buy him a drink (or twenty) and pack him off to the House of Lords with a box of matches - parlimentary reform anyone?

[smudge]

Now there's an idea undercovers!

''As far as I'm concerened, both Watson & Archer should have been stripped of their peerage! ''

Agree with you smudge and i would go further and abolish the house of lords as well...but the archer comparison is a valid one regarding the original question.

It's just astonishing. How can you become a peer and yet be the kind of twonk that can do this. About 20 people could easily have lost their lives over this. What a fool.

Archer seems worse though .Arrogant liar.

[bernardo]

No.  The H of L should comprise a wide spectrum of people with loads of different types of experiences.  Not even murderers should be sripped of their peerages, in my opinion.

[brawburd]

unelected in-breds and criminals who make laws the rest of us are meant to respond to.

Watson and Archer no different from each other.

Anyway, no law to strip them of their peerage.  Only individual morals and remorse.

No luck there then.

 

[brawburd]

undercovers good thinking!

[MargeB]

surely someone out there can knock together a remix of the Firestarter vid?

The House of Lords

is an anagram of

Oh sod the foulers

[don1]

It demonstrates just how worthless the so called honours system is in Britain when these pathological lying criminals are not expelled from it.

If I had a knighthood even if mine were well deserved, I would still flush it down the toilet, when low life's like Archer are admitted to the club it makes it a pretty shoddy club.
