Reasons behind two controversial Johnson peerages revealed after 18-month battle

The article from MSN discusses the reasons behind the controversial peerage nominations by former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, which were revealed after an 18-month legal battle by the Guardian. The House of Lords Appointments Commission (Holac) had initially rejected several of Johnson's nominations due to concerns over propriety and potential conflicts of interest. Notably, the peerage for Charlotte Owen, a former aide, was questioned due to her relatively short tenure and lack of significant public achievements, though it was eventually approved. Similarly, the nomination of Ross Kempsell, another former aide, was also contentious but was justified by his long-term service and contributions to the Conservative Party. The documents also highlighted the case of Shaun Bailey, whose peerage was debated due to his involvement in a lockdown party, but was ultimately approved. The revelations underscore the opaque nature of the peerage system and the significant influence former prime ministers can exert over the composition of the House of Lords.
