[sven_me...@web.de]

I have overlooked some like Valentine and Stern, sorry that was not good work.

[David Beamish]

I have a rather shorter list of those in danger, namely:

Lord Alliance

Baroness Billingham

Lord Botham

Lord Bowness

Lord Christopher

Lord Flight

Lord Hameed

Lord Irvine of Lairg

Lord McKenzie of Luton

Baroness Scotland of Asthal

Lord Taverne

Lord Tebbit

As regards others in Sven's lists:

The House of Lords Reform Act 2014 applies only to peers, not bishops & archbishops, and in any case the Bishops of Chichester, Guildford, Hereford, Leicester, Lichfield and Winchester took the oath on 9 July and the Archbishop of York on 10 July. 

The following took the oath on the dates noted:

Lord Browne of Madingley on 9 July

Baroness Campbell of Loughborough on 3 September

Lord Darroch of Kew on 10 July

Lord Darzi of Denham on 19 July

Lord King of Lothbury on 10 July

Lord O’Neill of Gatley on 9 July

Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay on 9 July

Lord Bird on 10 July

Lord Blair of Boughton on 25 July

Lord Boswell of Aynho on 18 November

Lord Carey of Clifton on 9 July

Baroness Eccles of Moulton on 29 July

Lord Gardiner of Kimble on 9 July

Baroness Greenfield on 9 July

Lord Greenhalgh on 10 July

Baroness Hallett on 22 October

Lord Haughey on 9 July

Lord Heseltine on 10 July

Baroness Howarth of Breckland on 10 July

Baroness Lane-Fox of Soho on 10 July

Lord Lebedev on 22 July

Baroness McGregor-Smith on 10 July

The Duke of Norfolk on 9 July

Lord Parker of Minsmere on 10 July

Lord Pearson of Rannoch on 9 July

Lord Smith of Kelvin on 9 July

Baroness Stern on 22 July

Baroness Valentine on 4 September.

As this is the first session of a new Parliament it is easy to see who is at risk as members have to be sworn in and this is recorded in the Minutes of Proceedings.

Looks like a autumn State Opening

Thank you for your work in creating these lists, Sven and David.

Just a couple of points to note on your list, David: Lord McKenzie of Luton died on 2 December 2021, and Lord Tebbit retired from the Lords on 31 March 2022. 

Tim

[sven_me...@web.de]

Thank you.

[JL]

Lord Tebbit retired on 31st March 2022 according to the Lords website.

[sven_me...@web.de]

And it's beginning again. Lord Alliance will be retired from tomorrow. 

[sven_me...@web.de]

Lord Botham swon in today.

[BREMENMURRAY]

Would be unfortunate to expel Lord Christopher just before his 100 years birthday

[sven_me...@web.de]

No of course not. it is the right thing to do. 

[sven_me...@web.de]

Lord Carter of Barnes retired on 28 March.

[John B-H]

Exclusions happen at the beginning of the following session, and the current session will last at least until September. Therefore, Lord Christopher (born 25 April 1925) will turn 100 years before he is possibly excluded.

[sven_me...@web.de]

Baroness Scotland took the oath. https://hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2025-04-01/debates/3F372241-A86C-4EBD-8541-F6F3C5DC867E/OathsAndAffirmations

[sven_me...@web.de]

https://lordsbusiness.parliament.uk/?businessPaperDate=2025-04-29&sectionId=40 Lord Hameed took his oath.

Just to record here Sven's post announcing the death of Lord Flight on 24 January 2026:

https://groups.google.com/g/peerage-news/c/zUH5o2g3eiI

If I am not mistaken, this means that there are now four members of the Lords (excluding those on leave of absence, disqualified, or suspended) who have yet to take the oath during the 2024-26 session of Parliament:

Baroness Billingham

Lord Bowness

Lord Christopher

Lord Irvine of Lairg

Hopefully they will be all removed this year and the new requirements will be much more than the one day in a session.
