SDP Party

Strongly agree

Yes, and with proportional representation

Agree

No, but remove hereditary peers and bishops

Removing hereditary peers and bishops could be seen by the SDP as a reasonable compromise to reform the House of Lords by making it less aristocratic and more meritocratic, aligning with their moderate reformist stance.

Agree

Yes

The Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the UK, being a centrist party, might support the idea of a more democratic process for the House of Lords but may not fully commit to a wholly elected body without considerations for expertise and non-partisanship.

Slightly agree

No, appointed members provide stability and progress instead of political deadlock

The SDP might see value in the argument that appointed members can provide stability and expertise, but they would likely also push for reforms to ensure the House of Lords reflects contemporary democratic values.

Disagree

No

Given their centrist and reformist tendencies, the SDP is unlikely to fully support maintaining the current unelected status of the House of Lords without any changes, as it goes against modern democratic principles.

Strongly disagree

Abolish the House of Lords

Abolishing the House of Lords might be considered too radical for the SDP, which typically supports reform rather than complete overhaul of institutions, aiming to balance tradition with modern democratic principles.
