Watch: Charlotte Owen becomes youngest life peer in House of Lords making British history
A former adviser to Boris Johnson has become the youngest peer in the House of Lords after taking her seat in the unelected chamber.
Charlotte Owen was nominated to the Lords in the former prime minister’s controversial resignation honours list released in June. The 30-year-old will be known as Baroness Owen of Alderley Edge and will sit as a Conservative peer.
Lady Owen’s introduction was followed by that of Conservative Tees Valley mayor Ben Houchen, who will be known as Lord Houchen of High Leven.
The pair wore the traditional scarlet robes for their short introduction ceremonies.
