A Citizens' House in Parliament

As usual Irvine Welsh is direct and to the point.

This Guardian article says that Mary Beard and Arron Banks want to "draw the House of Lords by lot because it works perfectly well for juries."

Stephen Fry thinks selecting MPs by lottery would be "a brilliant idea."

Ed Miliband and Geoff Lloyd , in a recent podcast, got "incredibly enthused" by sortition and deliberative democracy and think it is a way to bring political change forward.

Anthony Barnett, the founder of openDemocracy, has called for a Citizens' House to replace the House of Lords as well.
