The House of Lords 'move could, according to the York or Birmingham' Tory Chairman

Jul 18,2022 12:50 pm

checks The government, whether she has told The House of Lords of London, the Conservative Party Chairman.

James Sent Sky News is told, was the idea of a "range of options" as the "connection" of the policy by the voters outside the Capital .

, York and Birmingham have proven to be contenders to permanently host the upper chamber.

But the Labour MP Nadia Whittome, described the idea as "superficial".

According to the newspaper, a decision on the location of The Chamber can be determined, as part of a constitutional review will start in the spring.

He reported that fallow land near York Railway Station has been identified as a possible site to host The Chamber that houses 795 colleagues.

The House of Lords is already shifting due to temporary, from The Palace of Westminster as part of the renovation plans, due to begin in approximately 2025.

A parliamentary Committee in The Chamber of the government-owned Queen Elizabeth Ii Conference Centre in Westminster, while the works are in progress.

The hall would have been only a short walk from Richmond House , the former home of The Department of health, which was proposed as a temporary home for The House of Commons

Asked them to comment the proposals in the Sunday Times report, Mr Wise told the Sky's Sophie ridge: "It is one of a number of things that we are in.

"What we see is a whole bunch of options, if it is to ensure that every part of the UK feels right in politics," he added.

"basically, what this is about, demonstrate to the people that we are going to do things differently. "

analysis of Peter Saull, BBC political reporter

For Many Reasons , "The Lords of the North", as some call, it seems far-fetched.

But the fact that it is planned, in which all highlights the desire of the government to a perceived gap between politicians and voters.

The topic has also be called strong in the Labour leadership contest, with some of the candidates for our democracy far less London-centric.

Large parts of The Midlands and the North of England, turned Conservative in the Election , and the government want Westminster to be closer to the voters it represents; perhaps literally.

Whether it actually comes about, is the idea of moving the second chamber of the North fits in very well with Downing Street, the "levelling up" agenda.

Send colleagues to work hundreds of Miles Away from the MPs, however, would present logistical as well as constitutional challenges.

What would happen, for example, on The Day of The Queen 's speech? Your Majesty would make the trip to York ?

Would take the Black rod a train to London, just to the door of The Commons , solemnly slapped in your face? The MPs would go on a bus trip up the M1 to hear the plans of the government?

International development Secretary Alok Sharma said he was not involved in the discussions about a men's move, But was "supported" by the idea.

He told the BBC's Andrew Marr show: "As a principle, it is a very good thing that we have the connection of government in all parts of the country.

"I think it is absolutely right that, if you want a government of the people, you must go to the people, about the country. "

But Nadia Whittome, the newly elected MP for Nottingham East, told the program: "not Working class people, whether in the North, The Midlands or in The South take care of the unelected house of lords. "

"We want jobs, we want to make the right investment and meaningful decentralisation of power," She Said .

"Replace The House of Lords with an elected chamber and move it to the North And Then we'll talk - But that is superficial, it is tinkering at the edges. "
