Those who back the change in the law in England and Wales have been emphasising the “undemocratic” nature of the bill’s rejection by the House of Lords after it was talked out by a handful of peers after passing the House of Commons.(那些支持英格兰和威尔士法律改革的人一直强调，该法案在上议院被否决是“不民主”的，因为它在下议院通过后，被少数贵族用拖延战术“谈掉”了。) The bill fell despite multiple days of debate from peers(贵族；上议院议员) because of the number of amendments(修正案) tabled in the Lords(在上议院提出).
那些支持英格兰和威尔士法律改革的人一直强调，该法案在上议院被否决是“不民主”的，因为它在下议院通过后，被少数贵族用拖延战术“谈掉”了。尽管贵族们进行了多日辩论，但由于上议院提出了大量修正案，法案最终仍被否决。
Several former cabinet ministers(内阁大臣) and ministers say they intend to speak out(公开发声) on the bill now they are freer to express their views, especially on the conduct(行为；做法) of the Lords.
几位前内阁大臣和部长表示，由于现在可以更自由地表达观点，他们打算就该法案公开发声，尤其是针对上议院的行为。
