Did not snort cocaine off of prostitutes, 0/10.

According to the Sun newspaper and the Daily Mail he did. Off one of their breasts, no less. I wasn't sure about including such gory details given the nature of our board but needs must in this case. Surely the Baron would know the dangers of such antics at an advanced age? It killed John Entwistle after all.

"Chairman of the Lord's Privileges and Conduct" indeed.
Well, what he did sounds about right given his job description, yeah. At least in the 2-3 centuries' ballpark.

He got that "privileges" part right, in a way. I think.

The 69 year old Labour peer Baron Sewell, Deputy Speaker of the House of Lords and Chairman of the Lords' Privileges and Conduct Committee (earning roughly £85,000 a year), former Labour cabinet minister and close ally of Tony Blair has resigned from a number of his roles following the emergence of footage of him snorting cocaine through a bank note with £200-a-night prostitutes and subsequently launching into a racist tirade about Asian women, branding them "whores". I am unable to find a good article relating to that part of the case, however.

The House of Lords, eh? What are they like? Those scamps.
He started his own Parliament, with blackjack and hookers.

I feel like in the US, dysfunction and governance are evenly divided between the chambers but in the UK all the governance is handled by Commons while Lords handle's nothing but dysfunction.

Based on the footage I've seen of the Commons it mostly consists of people braying at each other and making arguments with little to no factual basis, I think the governance is handled somewhere else.

They secretly achieved true communism, they just pretend to have a government so the 'Murricans won't nuke them.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.
