Alderley Edge woman, 30, who is Boris Johnson's ex-adviser becomes youngest House of Lords peer
A former adviser to Boris Johnson has become the youngest peer in the House of Lords after taking her seat in the unelected chamber.
A cross-party Lords report last week said Mr Johnson’s exit honours had 'brought into question' the current appointments system for creating new peers. Lord Houchen, 36, worked as a solicitor from 2009 to 2015 and chief executive of BLK Sport UK from 2016 to 2017, according to his bio. He served as a councillor on Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council between 2011 and 2017, including as leader of the Conservative group from 2014.
