Obviously no interest in this then..... 3 1/2 hrs and no comments.

Think perhaps the US elections and Donald Rumsfeld's resignation might have been deserving of a piece - re-organisation of the Lords Front Bench in light of those doesn't grab ones interest.

Changes to the Lords set up doesnt really excite me that much...

The most interesting event in the HoL this week was our disgraceful capitulation over the Police and Justice Bill.

Baroness Miller did a fantastic job as a front bench spokeswoman - she really will be missed! Enjoy your second retirement, Doreen!

Than why bother commenting?

Because we're wasting time on a total non-event involding a bunch of clapped out nobodies, when we could be celebrating the joyous defeat of Bush and removal of the appalling Rumsfeld.

Rejoice! Rejoice!

Could ask you the same question, Mike.

Doreen Miller had of course already resigned over Hague's comments on Israel and how she had been treated by Cameron's office (see Jewish Chronicle about 2 weeks ago). Unfortunately for her nobody had noticed.

I was a bit slow posting on the US but have now done so: here.

It sounds like a major story has been missed by the press.

I recall Doreen Miller from years back and I agree with Justin. It is a great blow to lose such a talented woman

I would like to praise Peta Buscombe's work as a shadow minister in the Lords. I remember going with her once to a Conservative Peers meeting at Westminster (I was a lowly Smith Square minion) and at that particular meeting it looked like she was the youngest by about twenty years, at least. I rated her as a talented, hard-working, committed frontbencher fighting the good fight. My very best wishes to you Peta.

Judith Wilcox (principal Opposition Spokesman for Trade and Industry) is far from being a 'clapped out nobody'. She is from West Country fishing industry (couldnt get tougher than that)- ran the Consumer Council - much respected in Industry (Cadbury Schwepps, Automobile Association etc)- an intelligent and articulate speaker - good luck to her - we must be the preferred party in Trade and Industry.
