LA is not convinced that in the 21st century ministers should really be in the Lords. Is Gordon Brown moving to an American model where his cabinet is made up of appointees, not elected representatives? Was it not Labour that thought the Lords should be more democratic? What next will Labour in its panic bring back Blair as PM from the Lords? We gave up having a PM from the Lords in 1902, it was seen as not accountable to the people. If its not good enough for PM why any other position.
LA thinks it smacks of desperation.
LA is also amused that in order to help an economic crisis caused through dodgy mortgages in the US and here, Mandleson, ex minister sacked because of a dodgy mortgage is brought in, oh the irony!
