UK is only country to have unelected religious clerics in legislature outside Iran. All are bishops of the Anglican Church. Several Protestant & Jewish clerics have been made life peers but no Catholic clergy has served in Lords in 600 years. #AbolishTheMonarchy #LordsSpiritual

26 bishops are given seats as of right in #HouseOfLords . This is unfair, undemocratic and undesirable. Join our campaign to scrap the #BishopsBench . 👇👇👇 secularism.org.uk/scrap-bishops-… #LordsSpiritual #SeparateChurchAndState
Sam Wilson Father Didymus ✝️⛪️🙏🏻🎸🏊♂️🥃🏴⛷ House of Lords I think the #LordsSpiritual made my point very well by instead of justifying their existence - which they obviously couldn’t - blocked me! Not very Christian. #AbolishTheHouseOfLords
Very glad with Rachel Treweek to support my good friend the Bishop of Lichfield, Dr Michael Ipgrave, on his introduction to the House of Lords and to join family and colleagues afterwards #LordsSpiritual Church of England in Parliament Lichfield Diocese Southwark Diocese
Most Brits (62%) think bishops should not have automatic seats in parliament, new figures confirm.

Help us scrap the archaic, unfair and undemocratic Bishops’ Bench in the House of Lords. Writing to your MP can help to get the campaign for Lords reform on the political agenda. secularism.org.uk/write-to-your-…

Ronnie. H. Stephen Evans Liquid Len The senior bishops of the Church of England are de facto politicians, too. #LordsSpiritual
#LordsSpiritual Archbishops are made #LifePeers upon retirement by #convention ... but Dr Sentamu was not, at first. Seems he will be now...
Another religious zealot. They are all the same you know! #LordsSpiritual twitter.com/hisnamewastom/…

Why do 26 bishops still sit in the House of Lords? Reading the daily prayers? Not got better things to do?
