    Many people moan about unelected politicians but don't seem to be concerned about the peerage system and its place in the House of Lords.
    And can anyone not imagine Boris not being made a peer in due course? Whatever your personal slant on politics may be, he has been an enormous embarrassment on the world stage and a political opportunist at every turn. However, he will recceive his political bauble in due course, no doubt. As will those who donate large sums of money to political parties.
