The Imaginative Conservative: Abolish the Hereditary Lords in the British Parliament?
The UK Labour Party is moving to abolish hereditary lords from the House of Lords, aiming to replace them with life peers influenced by partisan politics. Critics argue that hereditary lords provide valuable counsel based on generations of experience and wisdom, serving as a stabilizing force in governance.
Supporters of the hereditary system highlight their unsalaried status, which offers cost-effective advice to the government, contrasting with the paid members of the House of Commons. They contend that the abolition is driven by ideological motives rather than practical considerations, undermining traditions that enrich the nation's identity.

GB News: SAS accused of 'deliberate' war crimes executing children in Afghanistan
A whistleblower from UK special forces has accused a military unit of executing Afghan civilians, including children, during operations from 2010 to 2013. The officer, identified as N1799, testified that UKSF1 had a policy of targeting all males under 16 and described methods of execution, including planting weapons beside victims to suggest they were armed.
The inquiry has raised concerns about potential cover-ups involving military leaders and government officials regarding these allegations. Previous investigations into extrajudicial killings by special forces have not led to prosecutions, despite claims of a "campaign of murder" against civilians. N1799 expressed ongoing fears for his safety following his revelations.
