Anyone who knows about the controversy surrounding Lloyd George's 1909 budget will know that the House of Lords fought tooth and nail to prevent the most important fiscal measures in that budget - Georgist Land Value Taxes - from being implemented. They fought so hard, and were prepared to give up so much, that they emasculated their own power by accepting the first Parliament Act, rescinding their historic rights to overturn anything the elected chamber sent to them - most especially finance bills, in return for their aristocratic land wealth remaining immune as far as possible to the tax collector's predations.
