Parliament must take back control of Covid laws

The consequences of taking away liberty to protect public health have been devastating to our society and economy

Me for ⁦ @Telegraph⁩ https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/09/26/parliament-must-take-back-control-covid-laws/

"We need a system which meets the joint ambitions of the Government and Parliament for prompt and effective action, with few opportunities for mischief and yet prior parliamentary approval before liberties are taken away."

"To get our economy back on track, we need global leadership in great economic governance through Prosperity Zones like the City of London Corporation or the Dubai International Financial Zone."

"With a network of global trade superhighways between London and the world’s economic powerhouses such as New York, the UAE and Singapore, we can create faster flows of goods, services and people, enabling a flourishing UK."

"No one is better placed to deliver this economic transformation for the better than Rishi Sunak. His clear determination to combine fearless principle with pragmatism was revealed when he set the freeport agenda in a think tank paper."

"This week, [Rishi] set a new tone of resolve and optimism. Boris was wise to make Rishi Chancellor: we need now his full capacity to innovate and inspire."

"Free trade and competitive markets, eliminating market distortions and opening economies to competition will kickstart the world economy with the UK as a global beacon of freedom, free trade and prosperity."

"These are the historic principles which made us great. 

"But they rest on parliamentary democracy and the rule of law. Please Boris, reach a deal with Sir Graham Brady to put Parliament where it belongs: right with you."
