Their Lordship's aren't paid (directly) either. And being safe from "dismissal" means that they can be "unpopular" and do the job properly and see it through even when governments change.

I guess that once upon a time a peer who really went against the rule of law would be "retired" permanently. Now that would be an incentive to behave :P
