"Could be wrong but secondary leg that is affirmed by both houses seems a fairly modern innovation. Parliament used to be more comfortable about passing short sharp bills. Drift to confirmatory secondary legislation perhaps as life has become more complex. It would be more consistent in my view that a vote of both houses carries more weight than a ministerial decision. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022274921057943554 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022274921057943554"

"I was just in @Waitrose in Victoria and they were throwing away baked goods including pretzels. I asked the man throwing them in the bin if I could buy one for half price. It would mean it didn't get thrown in the bin they would get some money I would get a pretzel. Everyone wins Sadly there was literally no mechanism for me to buy a pretzel at a discount that they were literally throwing in the bin which seems less than ideal to be quite honest. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022426424498377008 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022426424498377008"

"Zia is so right to challenge the absurdity of relative poverty. If we 10xd all incomes relative poverty would stay exactly the same. Also: if we cut everyones incomes in half relative poverty would stay the same too. How could we reduce relative poverty Seeing as relative poverty is defined as income below 60% of the median we can lower poverty by lowering median wages. Its absurd. Were all poorer but relative poverty has been cut. Congratulations. Zia Yusuf claims that "real poverty does exist in this country." @TrevorPTweets challenges Reform UK's head of policy on his comments"
