David Cameron faces major rebellion over Lords reform

British Prime Minister David Cameron faces one of the biggest rebellions of his premiership after more than a fifth of his own party threatened on Monday to vote against plans to reform parliament's upper chamber, the House of Lords. The Conservative Party revolt also threatens to take a sledgehammer to Cameron's coalition government with the Lib Dems, whose push to make the Lords an elected rather than an appointed chamber is a key condition of the coalition deal.
