Evgeny Lebedev and Ian Botham, both appointed to the House of Lords by Boris Johnson, have recorded the lowest attendance rates among peers at 1.12% over the past four years, attending just seven of 625 sessions. Under Lords rules, peers must attend at least one sitting per year-long session to retain their seats, a requirement both have narrowly met while showing minimal participation through speeches, votes, or committee work.
