A Jedi has made it to the House of Commons.

earthlingpink writes "In his maiden speech to the House of Commons, the Hon. Member for Copeland, Jamie Reed MP, announced that he is a Jedi: "as the first Jedi Member of this place, I look forward to the protection under the law that will be provided to me by the Bill" (the quotation is a fair way down the page; search for 'Jedi,' not surprisingly)...."

Will this mean the end of the monarchy? Is this the beginning of the rise of the Republic? Will we finally have balance in the Force???

I would have been more impressed by a Time Lord in the House of Lords.
