By all means support Reform UK's Local Election Guarantee Bill, but it stands no more chance of becoming law than the UK-EU Customs Union (Duty to Negotiate) Bill, and procedurally could not possibly do so before May's local elections. The Liberal Democrats' appeal to the Equality and Human Rights Commission is also a very long shot, but at least if it were ever to come to anything, then it would do so in time.
All this, and digital ID, facial recognition, the abolition of almost all trial by jury, the abolition of the automatic right of appeal from the Magistrates' Court to the Crown Court, the banning of under-16s from social media while lowering the voting age to a 16 that was two years lower than the school leaving age, conscription at 18, and the packing of the House of Lords that retained an absolute veto on any attempt to extend a Parliament beyond five years. And so much for either or both of the monarchy and the European Convention on Human Rights.
