No-one wants you to look at the product safety and metrology bill and there's a really good reason for that https://iandunt.substack.com/p/the-hidden-away-bill-charting-a-course

Always (since Spring 2016) wondered how 2 production lines would work: 1 for EU; 1 for UK (lower standards for latter presumably). Regulatory divergence was always crux of brexit lunacy.
Hopes & fears...
Handing ministers executive power to create closer trade ties with the EU sounds good to me. There's also the chance that the HoL will reject the statutory instrument and amend the bill anyway. #RejoinEU
While many dislike the House of Lords and want to change it for something else, I’m glad that they are still there
Someone in Labour understands the acquis (and therefore #Brexit) and have found a way to rejoin. It's clever, it will work, probably quickly.
Ideally, the majority of people aged 55+ in 2016 should be dead before Brits are voting on EU matters again.
I live in (realistic) hope but think it maybe 6
Sadly I think it’s got to get worse yet before it gets better
Yes there's a paragraph in the overview about EU alignment but it's just common sense stuff. Admittedly a novel concept under the Tories.
