There are many sh** ex-politicians and political appointees in the Lords. How many sh** hereditary peers were there?

The Cheer Up Gordon Brown thread
Spare a thought for our previous saviour of the world; he's now benched, and no matter how many "Economics for Dummies" books he reads, he's never going to get a similar contract again.
So ideas please, on how to cheer up the gentleman.
Here's one:
"Cheer up Gordon, the UK's got hundreds of billions of debt to pay back (and the cuts will harm nearly everyone), but you won't have to pay a penny. In fact we'll continue to pay you a nice pension. See - it's not all bad!"Tags: None
