It seems that government ministers are preparing themselves for our noble Lords to amend the EU Withdrawal Bill next week as it passes through the Upper House to even try and stop Theresa May taking the UK out of the customs union.

So, the bill will be hitting the buffers next week, the old buffers that sit in the House of Lords that is!

The mainly Remain House of Lords is expected to vote through amendments such as one that would enable "the United Kingdom to continue participating in a customs union with the European Union", reports the Independent.

The House of Lords is meant to be a technical revising chamber to offer amendments that makes the legislation work better - but all I can see here is a concerted effort by chancer peers to destabilise the government's Brexit programme and thus destabilise the whole UK, on the basis that they know better than the electorate.

I do not care what these peers claim they are doing, or why they say they are doing it. Their aim to me is as clear as day - to keep the UK either inside the EU or as close as possible so as to allow as quick and seamless a re-entry as they can manage at some later date.

This lot of peers are showing just how undemocratic they are and how contemptuous of the people they really are.

As far as I am concerned, the first item on the next Queen's Speech should be to fully reform the House of Lords into a proper proportional representation democratically elected chamber. That would make the EU Withdrawal Bill just about the last thing they can undemocratically interfere with.

Other topics include:

1. The new UKIP leader, Gerard Batten, coming in unopposed.

2. Labour Party candidates standing in the local elections on an anti-Brexit platform, posing the question where does Jeremy Corbyn stand on Brexit?

3. Remoaners running the People's Vote campaign to try and get a second referendum (on the trade deal they claim), backed by Sir Patrick Stewart.

Thank you for watching.
