Certain families, such as the Cecils, owe their long-standing political influence to the composition and role of the House of Lords , which was still mainly composed of hereditary legislators until the passing of the House of Lords Act 1999 . Other families, such as the Longs, have had a long tradition of standing for elected office, usually in the House of Commons . Many such families were part of the landed gentry , who often exerted political control in a certain locality over many generations.
