Bent "Lords"

Lord Taylor -- Would you pay this 79 year old crook £10,000 a day as a consultant??

Lord Snape -- A rather apt name methinks!

"The power of the House of Lords is entirely dependent on its credibility. In the absence of the democratic mandate that comes from election, the legitimacy of the Lords relies on it serving its purpose well and with unimpeachable integrity. That is why the allegations against four Labour peers, that they willingly sought changes to legislation in return for payment, are so serious. They call into doubt the viability of the House of Lords in its current guise.
The allegations read like a definition of corruption. Reporters from The Sunday Times posed as lobbyists acting for a fictitious business from Hong Kong interested in amending the Business Rates Supplements Bill to facilitate the establishing of a chain of shops in this country. They allege that Lord Truscott of St James, Lord Moonie, Lord Taylor of Blackburn and Lord Snape were all ready to negotiate a price to help." -- Taken from The Times On-line.


Did anyone hear the extracts from the recordings that the The Sunday Times reporters made?... UNBELIEVABLE!!! Yep give us a £100 grand and I'll get the law altered for you. Jeezus - these scumbags have got to be sent down. Pompous and arrogant beyond belief their sole concerns are to line their own pockets. Makes me sick.


Rant over.
