Another example of Johnson regime breaking democratic conventions

This a dangerous one because our system relies on power of opposition as essential check against tyranny

Good to see John Major identifying clearly the risks to democracy from the present Conservative Party

We urgently need a written constitution and clear and enforceable standards for those in public life to protect our democracy

RT @AdrianRamsay: Stark warning from Govt's own agency: a thriving natural environment is fundamental for human wellbeing & survival.

Successive govts have ignored warnings for 60 years.

Urgent action needed to rejuvenate the natural world can't be delayed any longer.

RT @ProfMarkElliott: I find this concerning, since it undermines the constitutional principle that the Government must be able to command the confidence of the House of Commons: a principle that requires the Opposition, when appropriate, to be able to test that confidence via a vote. /1

RT @GabrielScally: Comparing life expectancy in UK and Ireland shows two things. That the UK has had a significant crisis in the last 10 years and, also, just how badly the UK dealt with in its first year compared with our nearest neighbour

RT @ZackPolanski: Dominic Raab is talking about 'the threat' of electoral reform.

Proportional Representation terrifies Tories because people will have an actual vote that always counts.

Our Parliament can amplify voices of the people rather than vested interests.

RT @GreenPartyJack: It’s so depressing that the only Conservative leadership candidate talking about climate is the one saying we ought to scrap our net zero targets.

These people are so out of touch with the majority of the British public, who want Government to be more radical, not less.
