List of Life Peers announced in June 2018 following recommendation by the House of Lords Created Under the 1958 Appointments Commission. Of these, all but one (Martha Osamor), had Act received their writ and joined the House at the time of writing. Including Martha Osamor in the number, a total of 1,435 life Peers have been created thus far under the Life Peerages Act 1958. This figure is made up of 300 women (21 percent) and 472 who were former MPs (33 percent). The Life Peerages Act 1958 enabled life Peers to be created with the right to sit in the House of Lords, including female life Peers (marking the first occasion women could sit in the House of Lords). The power was conferred on the Sovereign, who could create Peers through letters patent on advice of the Prime Minister (although this relationship is not set out in the Act). To mark the 60th anniversary of the 1958 Act, this Briefing provides information on all life Peers appointed under the Act. It contains brief statistics, discusses those appointed by the House of Lords Appointments Commission and lists all the life Peers appointed under the Act. This Briefing does not include information on the Lords Spiritual, hereditary Peers or Peers appointed under the Appellate Jurisdiction Act 1876 (which related to the appointment of ‘Law Lords’ to the House).

House of Lords Library Briefing I Life Peers Since 1958 1 1. Overview The Life Peerages Act 1958 enabled life Peers to be created with the right to sit in the House of Lords.1 This included female life Peers, and marked the first occasion women could sit in the House of Lords.2 The power was conferred on the Sovereign, who could create Peers through letters patent on advice of the Prime Minister (although this relationship is not set out in the Act). There is no statutory limit on the number of new peerages. It is the Prime Minister who decides what number is appropriate. By convention, when recommending peerages for members of political parties other than their own, prime ministers take advice from the leader of that party. In addition, the House of Lords Appointments Commission makes recommendations for non-party political peers and vets party nominations for propriety. This Briefing provides information on life Peers created under the 1958 Act.3 It contains brief statistics, discusses those appointed by the House of Lords Appointments Commission and lists all the life Peers created under the Act. This Briefing does not include information on the Lords Spiritual, hereditary Peers or Peers appointed under the Appellate Jurisdiction Act 1876 (which related to the appointment of ‘Law Lords’ to the House); information on these can be found in the following Library Briefings: • House of Lords: Lords Spiritual, 4 September 2017 • Hereditary Peers in the House of Lords Since 1999, 27 March 2014 • Appellate Jurisdiction of the House of Lords, 20 November 2009 Please note: the date of a new appointment referred to in this Briefing is the date of the announcement of a new peerage, rather than the date of letters patent conferring the peerage or the date of introduction to the House of Lords. This makes it easier to compare the rate of new appointments to the Lords over time, as there can sometimes be a gap of weeks or months between the announcement of an intention to create a new peerage and the date on which a new Member is introduced in the Lords. While this method does ensure consistency, it does not follow that all appointments announced during a particular Prime Minister’s term of 1 House of Lords Library, Life Peerages Act 1958: 60th Anniversary, 28 March 2018. 2 House of Lords Library, Women in the House of Lords, 30 June 2015. 3 There have been three cases since 1958 where persons included in honours lists were not subsequently created peers. John Emerson Harding Davies, whose peerage was announced in the Queen’s Birthday List on 26 June 1979, died on 4 July 1979 before his letters patent were issued. Dame Shelagh Roberts, who was included in the New Year’s Honours List on 31 December 1991, also died before any title was gazetted. In addition, Sir Ian MacDonald Horobin, whose peerage was announced in the multiple list on 29 March 1962, subsequently withdrew his acceptance. These three individuals are not included in the analyses and lists below. 2 House of Lords Library Briefing I Life Peers Since 1958 office were recommended by that Prime Minister: John Major’s resignation honours list, for example, was issued in August 1997, some three months into Tony Blair’s premiership. It is worth noting that whilst John Major, Gordon Brown and David Cameron issued resignation honours lists, Tony Blair did not. 2. Statistics As of 1 October 2018, 1,435 life Peers have been created under the 1958 Act, made up of 1,135 men and 300 women.4 In addition, 471 of the life Peers were formerly MPs. In terms of affiliation at the time of creation, over this period: • 439 life Peers were affiliated to the Conservative Party at the time of creation; • 496 were affiliated to Labour; • 146 were affiliated to Liberal Democrats (or the Liberals or Social Democratic Party); • 354 were Crossbenchers or non-affiliated or affiliated to other political groups.

However, please note that this is calculated by taking their total number of appointments and dividing it by whole years served (ie it would ignore part years served). Therefore, the figures should only be considered indicative.

However, it was subsequently announced that he would sit as a non-affiliated Member (HL Hansard, 22 May 2018, col 982). 7 Over two terms. 8 These appointments include Martha Osamor, who has yet to join the House. 4 House of Lords Library Briefing I Life Peers Since 1958 3. Appointments Commission Peers Following the passage of the House of Lords Act 1999, the Prime Minister announced the establishment of a non-statutory Appointments Commission to assist with the nomination of non-party-political Peers.9 Since the first group nominated by the Commission became Peers in 2001, 67 new appointments to the Crossbenches have been made in this way.

Chapter 1 describes how Britain has established a system of rigorous civilian control over the military establishment. In Chapter 2 I look upon the UK’s defence and security policy which provide the core foundations for the operations of the Armed Forces. With the end of the Cold War, the changing security environment provided considerable challenges which also affected the operational planning for the Armed Forces.

  • General the Lord Dannatt GCB CBE MC DL Chief of the General Staff 2006-2009 Constable, HM Tower of London 2009-2016
    General the Lord Dannatt GCB CBE MC DL Chief of the General Staff 2006-2009 Constable, HM Tower of London 2009-2016 General the Lord Dannatt will share his lucid approach to leadership and unvarnished views on our military from the vantage point of a forty-year military career. This year sees the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II in 1945 with Victory in Europe on 8 May and in Japan and the Far East from August. That might seem remote, after all, during World War II horseracing continued on the July Course and the Derby moved to Newmarket from Epsom. Closer to the action, though, the Rowley Mile Racecourse was used as one of the key bases for the RAF Bomber Command. Newmarket was on the front line. Tuesday 18 February 1941 was market day in town. A group of high-level military personnel met in the King Edward VII Memorial Hall (opposite the Jockey Club Rooms. Two lieutenant generals and more than 500 officers were present. On that day, a German Dornier 17Z appeared at the Newmarket clock tower. Along the length of the High Street, it dropped 10 bombs. 27 people were killed and more than 200 injured. They were laid on the ground in front of the Jockey Club where first aid was administered and the gravely injured moved to White Lodge Emergency Hospital. The dead were taken to the mortuary.

By 1752, there was a garrison on Letort Creek at what is today Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania. In those days, Carlisle Barracks lay at the western edge of the American colonies. It was a bastion for the protection of settlers and a departure point for further exploration. Today, as was the case over two centuries ago, Carlisle Barracks, as the home of the U.S. Army War College, is a place of transition and transformation. In the same spirit of bold curiosity that compelled the men and women who, like Letort, settled the American West, the Strategic Studies Institute (SSI) presents The Letort Papers. This series allows SSI to publish papers, retrospectives, speeches, or essays of interest to the defense academic community which may not correspond with our mainstream policy-oriented publications.
