Another Nail

The House of Commons has voted 337 to 224 for a fully elected House of Lords.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it" has been interpreted by the current government to mean "If it ain't broke, smash it with a hammer and pick a fight that will make the Commons jam it back together into something that hasn't a hope in Hell of ever being anything except a constitutional nightmare."

Nice one.

Oh, and a fiver to anyone who spots the above reference.
