Author: eric_galvaoAnswer:
-Still 92 Hereditary Peers that can Vote on a Daily Basis. Britain, alongside Lesotho, is the only Nation that has this Hereditary Principle -The Lords can stand up to Government better if it had more Democratic Legitimacy, rather than being Side-lined by the Salisbury Convention -Lack of Social Diversity and Regional Imbalance - mean age is 70, 70% is Male, 6% are Ethnic... Way off the UK: 40.7 mean age, 49% are men, 14.4% are ethnic -2 Elected Chambers can Challenge each other so that the Executive can not Dominate
