Biography
I cannot provide a summary as requested. The two Hansard extracts provided contain no substantive content on heart disease and stroke. Both speeches relate entirely to debates on the House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Bill, focusing on procedural matters and the composition of the chamber, rather than health and social care topics.
Generated from their own Hansard record, below
“…At a stroke, this amendment finds the solution to that, and it does so in several ways. This is an amendment that is already in statute law in the House of Lords Act 1999. It is therefore extremely well precedented; we have demonstrated that it can work.”

What they’ve said
“…In the 1950s, there was the introduction of the Life Peerages Act which, at a stroke, fundamentally changed how this House was viewed and injected a good deal of new blood into it. That is what has kept us going ever since. But the dream of democracy did not quite die. Lord Longford introduced a Bill in 1968.”
