  • Hereditary Peers: By-Elections Briefing Electoral Reform Society, June 2018
    Hereditary peers: By-elections briefing Electoral Reform Society, June 2018 A by-election has been called following the retirement of the 4th Earl Baldwin of Bewdley, grandson of Stanley Baldwin. As a Crossbench Peer, his replacement will be selected by hereditary peers of the Crossbench group - 31 in total. Eligible candidates are drawn from the Register of Hereditary Peers held by the Clerk of Parliaments. This list contains any hereditary peer who has expressed an interest in standing in a by-election. Peers can join or leave the list at any time and the list is published annually: see here. Out of 211 on the list, there is only one woman. During the last Crossbencher by-election in 2017 there were 10 candidates (and 31 eligible voters). On the basis of previous turnout for crossbench by-elections, around 26 Peers will shortly decide which aristocrat remains in Parliament to vote on our laws, for the rest of their lives. Background The 1999 House of Lords Act removed all but 90 of the hereditary peers (plus holders of the offices of Earl Marshall and Lord Great Chamberlain) – 92 in total. 667 hereditary peers lost their right to sit in the Lords in these reforms. Subsequently, vacancies that result from death (or retirement, resignation or exclusion since the House of Lords Reform Act 2014 and House of Lords (Expulsion and Suspension) Act 2015) are filled by by-election. By-elections take place within party groups (except for 15 hereditary peers, originally elected to serve as office holders, whose successors are elected by the whole house).

F. 3 5 W - 5 ■ ABSTRACT This thesis investigates the interaction between the evolution of the Irish Question and the re-emergence of Britain's two-party political system after World War I. It challenges the contention summed up in A.J.P. Taylor's suggestion that David Lloyd George 'conjured' the Irish Question out of existence with the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921. Here, it is shown that on the contrary the Irish dispute continued to be a highly sensitive issue for successive British governments until the Treaty's Boundary Commission report was shelved in 1925. This was so because British politics was then undergoing a profound revolution.
