House of Lords Reform Bill

The House of Lords Reform Bill aimed to modernize the UK's upper parliamentary chamber, the House of Lords. Its goal was to make the Lords more democratically legitimate by reducing the number of appointed members and increasing elected members. This would create a more balanced and accountable institution while retaining expertise and tradition. The bill sought gradual reform, with changes implemented over time, to improve representation and maintain the Houses' stability and independence. Overall, it was part of ongoing efforts to update the UK's parliamentary system for better governance.
