Really good news and it is precisely the sort of step that Labour had to take. Iām afraid it is also the step that Corbyn would almost certainly have tried to resist had he remained leader.
Anyway, itās good to see Labour getting its house in order. The Conservatives should pledge to adopt the same independent standards and scrutiny.
I agree but they wont. Firstly they cant be seen to be following Labourās lead and secondly they will claim that there isnāt an issue.
I told you I was just catching up with the thread. Frankly I just responded to random posts as I felt fit , I did not realise they were all yours. You claim to only post facts. I would dispute this as I believe often it is only your opinions which as we know, differ from mine. I do not know why the fact that I disagree with you bothers you so much but donĀ“t worry I do not consider your opinion important enough to get stressed about so as a Christmas present to you I will ignore you in future 
My apologies. I happen to agree with you on this one.

Disgusted by that link @Noo_Noo we are a rich nation apparently .

6th in the world. 5th pre Brexit. Says a lot about the spread of that wealth doesnāt it?
Itās always playing leapfrog with the French. Weāll both soon be overtaken by India when weāll then take it in turns to be 6th/7th.
