Lords should not have power to Block/Change acts/decisions made by Parliament
It is clear with Article 50 now going through the Lords that they intend to block or change it. However, No one person in the Lords is elected by the public. This organisation is to big and expensive and should have NO rights to stop/change anything other than to advise.
Last 15 Years the Lords have increased in size dramatically and also the balance of politics in the house cannot be defended, Parliament for example have 9 Libdem MPs while they are represented in the Lords by over 100 Libdems. Further, to gain entry to the Lords but have strict rules that reflect the wishes of the public. PM's should only be able to appoint limited number of people and a fixed term sitting in the Lords should be applied not least to reduce cost
