Monday 26th October
The House of Lords has awoken
from its statutory slumber. The place which is normally used as a cure for
insomnia has suddenly become a place of grand excitement, as they have voted to
delay the Government’s highly controversial changes to tax credits.
This leaves George Osborne fuming
and forced to present a number of transitory measures. In his press pool
interview, he repeats the phrase “unelected Lords” like he was John McDonnell
saying “embarrassing”.
Constitutional upheaval is
promised, but what form that might take is as yet unclear. The hot favourite is
that George and David will create many more of the “unelected Lords” they
despise so much.
