Impeachment and Reform Debates Over the Lords
A long analysis contrasts the case for abolishing the House of Lords with calls to reform the constitutional system. It discusses Goldwin Smith's polemics, Mill’s influence, and the tension between preserving establishment and seeking justice. The piece also considers disestablishment, local legislatures, and a potential Canadian style central parliament.
