Today we will hear the debate on Labour's amendment to the Queen’s Speech, which calls for the introduction of a Windfall Tax on oil and gas companies, to be used to help poorer households.
Tories seem to be warming to the suggestion Labour has been making for some time. Today they get a chance to vote either for Party or conscience. Conservative MPs are expected, by those in the know and many who just look on in despair, to yet again, put Party before conscience.
However, it is good to see a softening in this direction. It has felt as if, as with Covid, we would see this far-right led government prepared to sacrifice the old and the poor on the altar of their (but by no means a majority of voters) beliefs in the God-given supremacy of the rich and powerful.
