LAWS to strip disgraced peer Jeffrey Archer of his right to sit in the House of Lords could be introduced in the next Queen's Speech.
It would bring the Lords into line with the Commons - where MPs who have been jailed for 12 months or more are barred.

Personally, I think he should be barred from the House of Lords, lose his peerage, plus pay back most of the ill gotten gains from his "victims".
Also I think he typifies the tory government of the 80's / 90's we all had to endure.

Well thats my opinion anyway.
