Cass literally saying there has been no increase in suicide as a result of her ban on puberty-blockers.
Tell that to the family of Leia Sampson-Grimbly.
She is also ignoring all the other harm her ban is causing, that I have documented here in my peer-reviewed (unlike the Cass Review) research.

Yes-- many of whom were either Satcho men, or their allies (especially Tosa and Hizen). There were peers from the north, too, but the way the peerage was constructed, they were in some cases permanently marked as traitors (usually via lower than expected rank)

this is also misunderstanding the role of the Lords (and the Privy Council) in the 20th C - they weren't UK but also Imperial insitutions - Smuts gets a Peerage as former SA PM so he can sit in the War Cabinet as Chief of Imperial General Staff

Last week’s peerage list shows the House of Lords is still used to reward loyalty, connections and convenience - all dressed up as democracy, at a cost of £371 a day per peer.
If we want a true democracy, it’s time to end this patronage palace and abolish the House of Lords.

Streeting is a careerist politician, with big money backers and one eye on a future peerage.
The problem with plastic people like him is they cannot fully appreciate the deeper motivations of real people with active involvement in the issues being discussed.
Trust is also a contract.

Since then, 96 new life peers have been nominated through political peerage lists, including 62 Labour Peers nominated directly by Starmer.

Caribbean Latino here. 😉 I like how the linguistic scheme informing the titles of your peerage system is distinctly Latinate in form. At least for me, it automatically lends the imagery a heightened intricacy / ornateness. My people are NOT known for our demureness or cultural sense of reserve. 😅
