Whether you’re British or not you probably know that the Brits have a strange political system which includes the Monarch, the House of Commons, and the House of Lords.
To become an MP you need to be voted in by real people. But becoming a lord is a little trickier. This video explains how and why…
There are several ways to become a lord, all of which are out of reach to most of us. You either have to be an aristocrat, a religious leader, or extremely rich. Which rules me out.
The British political system is flawed, but then so is every other country’s system. Which leaves us ordinary folk pretty powerless to make any real difference to how things are run.
