That’s the problem. It is guaranteed to lead to cronyism.

Only a ramainer would take issue with the house of lords and point this out, but when it’s mentioned about the EU it’s all a love in 
The Sunak husting was £20 a ticket. It’s now free 
Was that the one you were invited to? Did you accept - is that why the price dropped? 
I actually see the Lords as a useful backstop to make sure extreme governments dont do something stupid. Here we have Johnson intending to wreck that and basically legalise bribery but that’s apparently ok for you. Kind of odd that Brexiteers call it out as a main reason for leaving but this is getting a free pass (so far). Are you sure you have your priorities in order?
As far as the EU is concerned I saw the benefits outweighing the cons. Cons that we had opportunities to influence change in. All gone now, decision is done. Just wanting a government to make the best of a shit show thus far.

Yeah, was invited but not going. Swimming with the kids a much better option.
The EU wasn’t perfect, but the democratic deficit in the UK was always much greater than the EU.

Reality. We have an unelected second chamber, stuffed full of political appointments. Every step of the way in the EU legislative process is subject to a degree of democratic accountability. That more than can said for the UK.

Elec bill just dropped in, a tad under £400 per month. Oh the joy. This is going to absolutely destroy hundreds of thousands of people’s lives this winter.
