The head of a key US congressional investigation into alleged Russian hacking has temporarily stepped down amid an ethics inquiry into him.

House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes is now himself under investigation by the House Ethics Committee.

The panel is looking into claims that the Republican disclosed classified intelligence.

Mr Nunes called the charges "entirely false" and "politically motivated".

Representative Mike Conaway will take control of the Russia investigation

guffaws

It's alright, I never assume that you know anything about anything anyway. So no harm done

Can your house of lords investigate some scandal with cabbage or whomever while the house of commons investigates the same scandal separately?

We can here.

You reward is this. Today do you want me to go with snowflake boscox or clueless egg cunt? Because you sure as fuk don’t know the answer to the question I asked you clueless egg cunt

Ta mnottertail
off to read those ones

House of Lords, who are all un elected, does it have a purpose? I am not sure. In a way they can keep a government in check if they go totally fuking mental

The answer to your question nope http://www.parliament.uk/about/how/committees/select/

But can they block a government bill? Now, this I am not entirely certain...any of you English Jackals about?

That is their function. (Also why Blair was so keen to remove their powers and do away with them.)
And yes, they can block government bills: everything has to go through the upper house first, and a lot has been blocked there.

We are a nation of ponces and poofters so they hold pro forma session when they are in recess so the pres cans sneak in any stuff.

Lords Select Committees be there 6, and no more, and they will not run against/concuntery via the hovel of parliament - nor can they force a prime minister out, even one who is beserk.

There are currently six major Lords Select Committees:

the European Union Committee guffaws
the Science and Technology Committee
the Communications Committee
the Constitution Committee
the Economic Affairs Committee
the International Relations Committee

Dont look at me I studied science and malarkey
