Labour has previously vowed to abolish the unelected upper chamber of Parliament.

Labour plans to axe all hereditary peers from the House of Lords, reports have suggested.

This would allow them to still enjoy access to Parliament’s bars and subsidised restaurants.

Labour has previously vowed to abolish the unelected upper chamber of Parliament, with Sir Keir Starmer having branded it “undemocratic”.
