He was also appointed Director of the University's Centre for Legislative Studies in 1992. He is the editor of The Journal of Legislative Studies and chair of the Higher Education Commission. He is the author or editor of 32 books. He was elevated to the peerage in 1998.

He has been described by the House Magazine - the journal of the two Houses of Parliament - as 'our greatest living expert on Parliament'.

Isabelle Hertner is a Senior Lecturer in the Politics of Britain in Europe at King's College London. She researches political parties in Britain, Germany, France, and at the European Union level. Her research focuses on party organisations (and in particular, intra-party democracy and the role of members), policies (on the EU and immigration), and discourses (on gender). Isabelle is also the director of the Centre for German Transnational Relations at King's College London, which analyses Germany in the European and global context across different disciplines. She teaches British politics, comparative European politics, and European gender politics.
