Yeah having the Lords is a weird situation. The govt have shown that they can't be trusted to not vote through awful things because they've got majority control of parliament, but then the group that's doing the reality checks is an unelected body of toffs and cronies. I feel like if we do remove the lords we need to change the legislation approval to 65% or something so the party in power can't just pass what they like.

“And the Lords is where bullshit goes to die.”
Obviously not universally true but a golden line nonetheless
