The proposed system for an elected House of Lords lacks accountability and offers voters far less choice than had previously been envisaged
Johnston, R.
(2012).
The proposed system for an elected House of Lords lacks accountability and offers voters far less choice than had previously been envisaged.
Ron Johnston explains the draft legislation for an elected Upper Chamber and suggests that parties will come to dominate, the inability to re-elect members leaves an accountability gap, and much less choice is now offered to voters than had been advocated previously by the Liberal Democrats.
