    Plans to ban smoking is a stupid one. Prohibition never has worked and never will. More are moving to vaping anyways. You have to ask why vaping was not included in this.

    The ban on no fault evictions has a stay added until the loop hole can be added.

    The ban on leaseholds is credible. Leaseholds are just a con to make home ownership a subscription scheme. I do not understand why flats are excused. It is very easy to add a tenancy agreement. This does not need to be leasehold.

    Oil and gas licensing is just another scheme to rob the country of money. People want a focus on the climate. This is just a lead balloon.

    Tougher prison sentences are a joke when we have to release prisoners early now because they are at capacity. Where was the funding to build these prisons?

    Self driving vehicles looks like it is having loop holes added. Now we know why Musk was invited to the AI conference.

    The football regulator remains to be seen, but I have no trust the Tories can actually get anything right, or do it without expecting a backhander.

    National holocaust memorial? why. Are we going to have one for the many other atrocities that have happened in history? I could understand this being suggested in the 1940’s, but atm it is just a popularity stunt. Someone needs to point out that the British were the inventors of concentration camps.

    Great British railways just sounds like another sell off project. It is just a stunt to make nationalising the railways more expensive when labour come to power.

    Plans to introduce new codes for Netflix is a joke. Ofcom is a joke and a waste of tax payers money. They do not enforce the current laws.

    So all in all the only good I see is the leasehold law. And yet you have to ask would the Tories actually deliver? Sunak has abandoned the Tory manifesto for his own ideas. They are a party that are holding onto power after having conned the public to vote for them.
