The precedent would be you have to explicitly say what you're going to do in the first vote.

Every single person in the campaign was "oh we'd never leave the single market" and when that became an option afterwards it needed a new referendum.

Until someone uses it for a little more than boilerplate, and the reviewer nods that bit through as it's hard to review and not something a human/the person who "wrote" it would get wrong.

Unless all the ai generated code is explicitly marked as ai generated this approach will go wrong eventually.

All of the government is still in place.

Ministers are not supposed to start new projects or make long term decisions during purdah if possible.

The point is they reduced the sugar in coke semi secretly, they can still buy a coke it just doesn't stop going into diabetic coma. And you find out when you're on the way to hospital.

With recall you can search for a website you saw once, a link in a discord channel, an email all at once in one place.

The "BBC" has a long history of weird "quote style" No one "knows why"

I think it must be a spy code like those number stations

It's worth reading the article, and better articles are available in the UK press too.

The coverup came from ignorance, no one actually knew this was happening but the NHS staff had reason to reassure patients and just assumed everything was ok without looking hard.

NHS management also didn't look.

When ministers tried to ask about it they got told everything was fine by their civil servants. And so they go out and tell the press everything is fine.

No one can start an investigation for the suspicions because it looks like admitting it's happening, and they genuinely didn't know it was. Because there had been no investigation.

"Standing back and viewing the response of the NHS and of government, the answer to the question 'was there a cover-up?' is that there has been. Not in the sense of a handful of people plotting in an orchestrated conspiracy to mislead, but in a way that was more subtle, more pervasive and more chilling in its implications. To save face and to save expense, there has been a hiding of much of the truth," Langstaff wrote.

"Over decades successive governments repeated lines to take that were inaccurate, defensive and misleading. Its persistent refusal to hold a public inquiry, coupled with a defensive mindset that refused to countenance that wrong had been done, left people without answers, and without justice. This has also meant that many people who are chronically ill have felt obliged to devote their time and their energies to investigating and campaigning, often at great personal cost."
