This legislation will be back after the General Election, with minimal changes, relating primarily to the possession of unpublished material, but otherwise largely the same.
What changes there are will have been on the advice of the Attorney General that certain provisions were unconstitutional and not in response to public opinion. They don’t care two damns what you think in principle and for five years after the GE there is nothing you can legally do in practice.
We’re not celebrating until we see the whole Bill renounced.
