Renovation of the UK Houses of Parliament

I have just seen an article on the BBC Politics Show that posts that the UK Houses of Parliament need renovation but the general public might baulk at the costs.

The Houses of Parliament are an architectural wonder and they symbolise many of the best aspects of British political life. Governments come and go and some are more successful than others and many political,social and economic mistakes have  been made; but in general our country is governed quite well compared to many other countries. I have no doubt that the Houses of Parliament are full of well meaning MP's from all parties who are doing their best to preserve freedom of speech, thought and conscience. They are also trying to defend both our democracy and the peace from both internal and external enemies. In these endeavours they deserve public support.

I hope that the general public will support the improvement to the structural integrity of the Houses of Parliament  to preserve it for future generations.
