Lording it over the rest of us

Rico says that sometimes, when you least expect it, you stumble across a website you'd never have imagined:

Launched in early 2008, Lords of the Blog encourages dialogue between the public and Members of the House of Lords. This is where Members of the Lords write blogs on their specialist areas, and talk about life and work in the House of Lords. We have a growing number of regular contributors as well as guest appearances from other Peers.
All the authors welcome your comments and will try and respond, please remember to keep comments on topic (read our terms and conditions if you are unsure).
Opinions expressed by the authors/bloggers are their own and don't represent those of the House of Lords, its administration, or other Members (including parties and other groups of Members).
This site is managed by the Hansard Society, the UK's leading political education and research charity, as part of its commitment to Parliamentary democracy.
