They've had very little power since the start of the 20th century when the Liberals got sick of them vetoing literally everything they tried to do to improve normal peoples lives.

Campaigning with Lloyd-George for the People's Budget was one of the few unambiguously decent things Churchill ever did.

then it's ratified and is law. If the Lords reject it, then it goes back to the Commons for debate

They can delay laws heavily, but not suggest or reject them.

The reason this session is so high stakes is because parliament is going to be prorogued soon, and if the Brexiteers in the Lords can filibuster long enough they can effectively stop the legislation in the Commons from passing into law.

i.e no deal happens by default
