Bonfire of citizens rights.

cepheus

This is a nightmare. it's a sort of fast track to privatisation of everything and hands ties regulators of private industries even more than now. Thankfully it's only a bill and hopefully it won't see the light of day, but the TTIP is still alive just!

The innocuously titled Deregulation Bill, quietly tabled in draft by Oliver Letwin and Ken Clarke just before the summer break, strips citizens of our right to be consulted before services are closed or privatised. It imposes a ‘growth duty’ on regulators to ensure they act in a more business-friendly manner, which could force health watchdogs like the Care Quality Commission to prioritise ‘economic growth’.

And it gives a blanket power to government ministers to repeal inconvenient laws without parliamentary scrutiny.
