Labour will do nothing to clean up the lobbying system or any other area in politics, the majority of politicians are happy to maintain the status quo as they benefit from it.
The rules are from two centuries ago. We need to move our MP's and Lords out of their colonial palaces. They should not be spending billions on keeping it from crumbling away. They should be living by example. We need new rules but also move the Parliament into a carbon neutral building in the north. We need to get rid of the monarchy and all the palaces could be given to the National Trust. There is no evidence that people would not come to the UK as tourists still. There are multiple reasons that they should be moved to the north. We will never stop behaving like we are an empire, until we ditch all the colonial structures and rules, including a voting system that is designed to not ever be fair. We need to close down all the tax havens and give back all the land we nicked from other countries. We need to end the commonwealth shit. I would say that all these things are long overdue for reform. We need a smaller elected second chamber and rewrite all rules that are about politicians and what they can and can't do. Personally I think we could do with 'real time fact checkers' in Parliament. Everything that is needed is long overdue. We need to get a leftist government with a massive majority and then it all becomes possible.
Fantastic, if chilling piece. The arms industry, benefitting from another illegal war in the Middle East, is rife with this sort of thing.
