This rhetoric is exhausting.

    He was lorded simply by being prime minister. It was traditional up until Boris said fuck may. I have no clue what’s going on since then

    What? That’s not even laughably true.

    When left the PM’s office in 2016 he didn’t automatically become a lord. He spent 7 years afterwards not being a lord but received a life peerage in 2023 when he became foreign secretary.

    Where the fuck do you get your information? LOL 😂

        You kinda did

        He was lorded simply by being prime minister.

        Which is wrong.

        You also said

        It was traditional up until Boris said fuck may.

        Which is also wrong. John Major didn’t get a lordship. Tony Blair didn’t get a lordship. Gordon Brown didn’t get a lordship. You have to go back to Margaret Thatcher to find an example supporting your claims. That’s some twenty six years of being wrong… more of you count the PMs after Boris. 🤣🤣
