Are We Becoming Ungovernable?

I have not read the fine print of the Conservative Manifesto 2015 and it may be, on the current issue, that the Upper House has a point and is justified in interfering with legitimate legislation.  But I was dismayed by the Government's pathetic defence of their policy and the complete surrender of sympathy to the BBC's endless stream of hard luck stories.  How about some sympathy for tax-payers? Nevertheless, suitably emboldened by yesterdays "humiliating defeat" of the Government, I fear we should expect to hear more from our Noble Lords, particularly over issues such as the EU Referendum and Human Rights.  Doubtless, they will feel similarly justified to frustrate the will of the Commons.  Such righteousness will only encourage Labour activists seeking to frustrate government through "direct action." How long, I wonder, before we become ungovernable?
