Image: PA Images BRITISH PRIME MINISTER Boris Johnson is under mounting pressure to give parliament greater power to debate and vote on Covid-19 restrictions, with more than 50 Tory MPs signalling they could revolt on the matter.
The size of the rebellion could see the government facing defeat if the amendment is selected for a vote and opposition parties join forces with Brady. A blog post by the UCL’s Professor Meg Russell and Lisa James said: “MPs have genuine cause for complaint.” “Only yesterday regulations on self-isolation were published, coming into effect just seven hours later, and imposing potential £10,000 fines; yet, despite media briefings eight days previously, these were not debated in Parliament,” they said.
“In his first six months as Prime Minister, Johnson cancelled or indefinitely postponed three Liaison Committee evidence sessions, unlawfully prorogued Parliament, and introduced a Withdrawal Agreement Act which – unlike its predecessor – gave Parliament no real oversight of this year’s Brexit negotiations,” they said.
Draconian rule is a crime.
Damn right the restrictions are crazy. We have treatments so just treat early and get back to normal
