Wonderful. Now Labour plan to "destroy justice as we know it".
Anything else they're going to wreck on their way out of office?
Remember: it is ALWAYS much easier to break things than to restore them. So their reckless legacy will linger long after they're gone.

Last night the Government steamrollered its Planning Bill through, slamming the door on vital protections for nature.
They said it would be a ‘win-win’ for the economy and nature.
But in reality, they’ve pushed nature into last place.
