Most people in the UK refer exclusively to the royal family when they’re talking monarchy, which outside of the queen/king vetoing the PM there is not much they can do. The house of lords is a proper parliamentary body, and is one part of getting laws set up, alongside the “house of commons”, the latter which holds the elected MPs, whereas the house of lords is entirely unelected.
