Labour is abolishing all traditional membership of the House of Lords – except, which is interesting, the Lords Spiritual, the bench of Anglican bishops. All hereditary peers might even be out as early as the end of this month. Lord Moore has written about Starmer's Lords reform for the cover piece in the Spectator this week. Natasha Feroze speaks to Lord Moore, and Sophia Falkner.
