Eleven peers have not sat in Lords for at least a year after failing to take oath to king

Ex-supreme court president among those whose failure to take oath means they cannot sit or vote in second chamber

Lady Hale, the former president of the supreme court, is among 11 peers who appear to have neglected their duties in the House of Lords after failing to take an oath to King Charles - a requirement for them to perform any part of their constitutional role.

Among the other peers is Harry Carter (Lord Carter of Haslemere), a top lawyer working in Downing Street, who was appointed a peer by Theresa May nearly four years ago but has never taken part in the House of Lords.
