A bland upper house is worse than none at all. And I'm of the opinion unitary states don't really need upper houses; who do they represent?
I say, now without irony, that the ideal solution would be to return to the pre-Blair hereditary system (if not even further back) whilst making the house completely powerless, maybe with some "prerogatives".
Right now the Lords is a farce, a Senate-for-life much like Canada's with the fairly unimportant distinction that its members get a noble title along with their seat. I mean, a life peerage is even less a noble title than it is just an honour. The political Lords has been terrible.
