is nothing sacred the Brits have finally
had enough of being lorded over by the
aristocracy the government's giving the
hereditary page the chop evicting them
from those hallowed Halls the House of
Lords add to that the high cost of
living in a stately home and your Lord
and Lady ship's days could be numbered
but as history has shown us you can't
keep a true blue blood down the landed
