Think about how crazy it is that the UK appellate court is the House of Lords.
And I know it’s not literally Lords sitting on the bench but still, lol, the House of Lords is a thing.

Come on, guys, aren’t you really embarrassed about still having a House of Lords? It’s embarrassing.

@sarahjeong If you think that's daft, wait until you learn about Black Rod: http://www.parliament.uk/about/mps-and-lords/principal/black-rod/ … -
@exileinflyville lol "Traditionally the door of the Commons is slammed in Black Rod's face to symbolise the Commons independence."

@sarahjeong they've got a regular Supreme Court now -
@bergmayer how long ago and were people mad about the change -
@sarahjeong like the last few years and probably. Better than the "law lords" setup for sure. -
@bergmayer so when are they getting rid of the house of lords completely? -
@sarahjeong they're just slowly making it ceremonial. I like the idea of "life peers" to be honest. Like elected monarchs but less dangerous
