Some years ago I, an American citizen and resident, studied abroad briefly and was asked by the House of Lords to speak to them about what GDPR (a UK law!) was, how it worked, and the impact it could have.
Further than ejecting nobles, they really should just overhaul the entire chamber, which is surely doing more harm than good if they need a foreign national to explain their own laws to them.

- cuuupid 7mo agoThey wanted someone knowledgeable about GDPR to explain it to them as they didn't understand it. I was a freshman in undergrad who had no knowledge of it other than some stuff I saw on LinkedIn, just had a bunch of LinkedIn connections I guess, so I turned it down.
- klelatti 7mo agoYou don’t think it’s a strength that they have the courage to seek views from as wide a range of perspectives as possible, including from outside the UK?
- cuuupid 7mo agoThat's not what this was about at all, literally just needed GDPR explained to them
