the senate is an undemocratic function of our system.
if that rubs you the wrong way then maybe it's time for it to go.
but replacing it with a body that's in any way elected is totally pointless, instead of having one wasteful and ponderous elected body we would have two???
who thinks of this stuff? deal with the fact that we have a house of lords, or abolish it altogether.
this is a ridiculous debate.
