| | Evening Standard (London): 600 lords join Guy Fawkes in history books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) |
 | | All royal peers, except Lord Snowdon who has accepted a life peerage, have voluntarily given up their voting rights. |
 | | The survival of the 92, however, could still be under threat if the Lords continue to disrupt the Government's Welfare Reform Bill next week, according to ministerial sources Among the hereditaries who did not get enough votes was crossbencher Viscount Rothermere, 31, chairman of the Daily Mail and General Trust, publishers of the Evening Standard. |
 | | Unsuccessful Tory Lord Monk Bretton, whose title goes back to 1884 and is the son of the second Baron, returned to the chamber immediately after the vote, hoping to make his last speech before he bows out next week. |
