Longest serving peer

edit

Lord Strathcarron was not the longest serving peer at the passage of the House of Lords Act 1999 - this honour belongs to Dominick Browne, 4th Baron Oranmore and Browne, who had been in continuous service since 1927. Lord Strathcarron could only have taken up his seat in 1945 (he succeeded to the peerage whilst still a minor), and so would have held his seat much less time than several other peers. --New Progressive 09:40, 1 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
