And important to acknowledge that this is just part of the process of translating a political position into something that can be legislated for. There will be more of this. It’s not a sign of selling out, it’s a sign that they are serious about being in Government.

This system is such a mess. Carers allowance is so low people face hunger & debt. It's so badly designed it misses many who really need it AND disincentivises work. While the government is desperate to get more people working more. It's not compassionate, just or effective.

Another example, as with leasholds, where establishing a CMA inquiry into the framework for renewal of contracts can be established. Whilst the inquiries are being carried out bring in something like the consumer duty for mortgages. @Victoria_Spratt @asentance @NormaCohen3

I'm pretty sure I explicitly argued that the past cannot be reduced to a matter of 'good' or 'bad'...😏

@billwells_1 @oldtrotter @Frances_Coppola That still leaves plenty of room for rival political visions, competing priorities and so on. What worries me at the moment is that there doesn't even seem to consensus on these core functions - there are people who just have it in for government as a whole.

Just been to running track at local park. Did the warm ups suggested by a friend who sprints. First 100m in 17s second in 18s. So going to say yes
Been asked to run in an "All star" 4x100m sprint relay at the Olympic Stadium in front of 10,000s as part of the anniversary games. I'm in 2 minds a) awesome bucket list thing to do b) I normally run 15km I never sprint, last time I did I tore my groin & took mths to recover!
