So it's ping-pong time. Here is the fax number for the Peers Lobby in the House of Lords so we can send the messages asking them to dig in their heels : 020 7219 5979.

And here is a link for sending faxes via your PC - http://www.networks-id.co.uk/tpc.htm - from anywhere. Remember Peers don't have constituents, so faxes from foreign parts should get read as well.
And here is a link to a post with a list of relevant peers.
