Peerless act
I cannot bring myself to believe that a Tory as right-wing as Mr Cameron, would or could, ever contemplate interfering in the composition of this privileged assembly.
I should imagine that there were pressures other than the back-benchers’ so-called rebellion that played a part in his paltry attempts to “accommodate” his deputy, Mr Clegg’s wishes. He probably also had in mind the thought that he would, one day, find himself seated in that very chamber.
