Page 1 of Lord Prescott kicked out of the House

I didn’t know that Lords could be removed from the House of Lords!

 I thought once you were in, you were in for life. Apparently inaction and non-attendance means you can be removed.

When Labour announce they wanted to introduce a mandatory retirement age of 80, my first thought was, "that can't remove many people" and then I saw how many it would remove and was shocked.

The irony is that they announced it the day Starmer went to meet Biden.

I could buy a years worth of sandwiches for going to work, if I just got one days allowance in the Lords :D

TBF one days allowance is only equivalent to a decent bottle of Champers don'tcha know.

Im sure his attendance dropped after he had a stroke, so understandable

Stroke. That's no excuse, for that attendance money I would turn up even if I was dead. And likely the Lord's would not notice till I smelled :D

Depends if the tin foil hat made you smell sooner or later.
