Continuing my occasional series on Peter Mandelson keeping his options open, from today's Queen's Speech:
Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill
Creates basis in law for Parliament to scrutinise treaties ("scrutinise" - not actually "vote on" or "reject" or anything). Ends the by-election of hereditary peers to sit in House of Lords. Provides for disqualification of peers convicted of serious offences or subject to a bankruptcy order. Allows peers to resign peerages. Repeals legislation limiting protests around Parliament. Generally extends to whole UK.

You could never execute Mandelson. Dark Lords are from another dimension.
JH, stake, heart, what's the problem?
I would like a career in Clinical Psychology, which is also somewhat medical and involves similar work experience.
