Shock! Horror! Labour peers get the top jobs!

Surprise of the day: Labour party peers were 10 times more likely to get cushty jobs with government quangos than opposition counterparts. Twenty Labour peers to only two Tory and three Lib Dem peers have been handed top public sector posts - some earning up to £200k; though I guess they need the high earning salaries more than the Tories or Lib Dems to pay for their peerage in the first place.
