I think the house of Lords will end up being in the dustbin of history ,not just in their attempts to derail Brexit - which will get many conservatives on-board, but also if labour win.
The Lordships are likely to frustrate Corbyn's agenda as well, given that they're setting precedent in Brexit ,there is enough of the soft left and liberal left along with conservative peers to delay legislation of what will be a hard core socialist government. Plus if you can ignore 17 million votes of a national referendum , you can ignore the much smaller amount of votes any Corbyn would get. I think at that stage there would be a constitutional crisis or more accurately a consensus to abolish the house.
And why not? Ever since Tony Blair vandalised it, the house, by getting rid of most of the hereditary Peers , has become nothing but a revolving door for career politicians and patronage for party leaders. Let's get rid of it and replace it with something else as it is so sickeningly corrupt it's time to go.
