I am delighted for several people on today's list of new peers: Katy Clark, Brinley Davies, Frank Field, Kate Hoey, Gisela Stuart, Professor Prem Sikka, Tony Woodley.
And Claire Fox, who is perhaps the first member of the House of Lords to have been a member of the Revolutionary Communist Party.
Boris Johnson should announce the peerages of the great and the good of the Independent Left, figures such as Tariq Ali and John Pilger, on a "take it or leave it" basis.
I reckon that they would take it. They are not going to be given a platform by Keir Starmer, are they?
