Law Lords don't make laws.

Au contraire. They amend, adjust and tweak virtually every piece of
Government legislation Their adjustments and suggestions are more
often than not incorporated into laws as their scrutiny is usually
more rigorous than that of the lower chamber.

Every amendment, tweak and adjustment has to be approved by both houses
of parliament;
and is therefore their collective responsibility.

There are 12 Law Lords and their function is judicial (appeal
courts) not legislative.
