For a moment I thought The Shadow Lord was a real title in British politics. The Right Honourable Shadow Lord, Baron of Darkness.

Add the word "Chancellor", and it does become a real title. Currently, the Shadow Lord Chancellor is Robert Jenrick, which seems...appropriate

I think that would be the technical name for anyone kicked out of their upper house of parliament.
