    Guess. But he has a lot of tory opposition. As they consider it a indevidual freedom issue.

    Going into an election having relied on the opposition parties to support you. Because the party you lead can’t be convinced to vote for you policies.

    Looks bad. So he likely dud not bother to risk it.

      Would be good for Labour to steal the policy

        Not so sure. Indeviduals right to do stupid shir. Tends to be an issue on the lefr as well.

        While labour as a party has an authoritarian history. Many voters automatically reject policies like this.

        If you look up old vids from these times.

        When we introduced drink driving laws.

        Seat belt laws.

        Smoking in public places.

        You will be stunned by how vocal people were about overreach.

        While I agree with the idea. I do not think it would evere be a vote winner overall. Labour is more likly to lose votes fr folks thinking they are returning to nanny state ideals.
