Welcome to the House of Lords!

So, you're now a working peer, congratulations! Bit of an odd time to be joining us, what with Parliament being in recess and all, but hey, you can still swear in! As a WP, you are entitled to a Barony within the peerage of the United Kingdom, including locations within Northern Ireland or any of its subsidiary peerages. The location you choose must have a population of less than 50,000, and can't be already in use - check the spreadsheet to see what's in use.

You may be styled as Baron / Baroness / Lord / Lady [of] Place. The “of” in your title is optional and you can choose whether or not to use it. Before partaking in debates or voting you must DM me and I will approve your title, then swear in.. You are also entitled to a Coat of Arms - if you would like to create one, feel free to look at the roll of arms for inspiration and DM me with a design or to ask for help.

Please read the Standing Orders here, as they will help you understand the workings of the House and give you some tools to use in the House. My hope for our new Working Peers is that you enjoy your time in the House and the new privileges you are entitled to in style and coat of arms, but most importantly that you do the "working" part of your peerage! We will conduct regular activity reviews and will not stand for inactivity.
