If you want to inherit a seat, you'll have to do it the old fashioned way and run as a Labour MP.
Cabinet Office@cabinetofficeuk
This is the biggest reform to our Parliament in a generation. 🇬🇧 This morning, the 700-year-old system of hereditary membership in the House of Lords was abolished. Membership is now earned through public service and merit, not granted by an inheritance. ✅

@alexmassie @IvorGCampbell Is that the proposal or the government?

@ajcdeane @photomikeyhere So you haven’t matured in nearly 30 years

We have spent £180m on plans for a tunnel under Stonehenge.
The project is now scrapped.
You can be for a tunnel & think spending is a good idea (even if you think the cost of planning is silly).
You can be against a tunnel & think spending is a bad idea.
But *nobody* can be for spending on this scale with zero result.
And yet that is a peculiarly British outcome.
Nobody will be reprimanded. Nobody will see their career affected.
But that’s £180m of taxpayer money just wazzed up the wall. Totally without repercussions.
Multiply this by airport expansions & train route plans and Thames crossings and power stations and other examples you can think of yourself, and… soon you’re talking serious money.

@HoneybourneFarm @66Steph82 I can’t remember when they ever focused on the environment

@66Steph82 I really can't believe how quickly they've gone from environmental issues to utter lunacy!

BREAKING:
The Islamic regime in Iran hanged the 19-year-old wrestler and anti-regime protester Saleh Mohammadi today
English

Today, in Iran, in the middle of a war, the regime executed a 19-year-old national wrestling champion for the crime of joining January protests. 💔
After signaling to the world, including President @realDonaldTrump, that they would halt executions of protesters, the regime has done the exact opposite.
Three young protesters, Saleh Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi, and Saeed Davoudi, were hanged in Qom after a sham trial.
Reports indicate torture. Forced confessions. No access to chosen lawyers. Closed-door proceedings. No right to appeal.
I call on @GlobalAthleteHQ to stand with Iranian athletes who are being silenced, imprisoned, and executed simply for raising their voices.
This is not just about sports. This is about human dignity.

@theospreyuk @Szlater2 Yes, I believe this will harm far more women and babies than it could ever help

That is at best misleading

Liam Holman@Liam_Holman99
Before, it was illegal to abort a stillborn baby after 24 weeks. A grieving mother would have to carry their dead child to term with all the risks that come with it. The bill that the Lords just passed decriminalised it.

Today, the Islamic Republic hanged multiple Iranian civilians, some of whom were just teenagers.
Amnesty International? Silent.
The UN? Silent.
Human Rights Council? Silent.
The Red Cross? Silent.

I thought this had to be a spoof - but no! And for a smidge under £1,500 you can own this classy beauty. The Emperor’s New Bag. balenciaga.com/en-gb/chips-ba…

This luxury bag shop in Turkey demonstrates the beauty of a $1790 Balenciaga pouch. It comes in yellow, is quite versatile, and I believe it’s water proof. I’d be willing to pay ten cents for it, what about you?

Whatever your thoughts about Fox voting with her beliefs, if you oppose the amendment then focus on the 13 Bishops who didn’t vote with their beliefs, not the person who did
The Bishops are there to provide spiritual insight into the debate and votes, and they chickened out

I'm being named & shamed for my views on abortion. Let me be clear. Name away. But I won't be shamed for sincerely held views & trying to win arguments last night in Lords & more broadly in public for years. PS online version of putting opponents in stocks weakly avoids argument
English
@Fox_Claire I think people are surprised because you have fought so hard against Leadbetter’s bill
This wasn’t in the manifesto, but it’s not your manifesto
It’s a huge change, and it’s on the back of a recent case
A viable life ends
