Shops (Early Closing Days) Act 1965 (repealed 1.12.1994)
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
2 Repeal of powers to change closing time on early closing days and to extend early closing day provisions to exempted shops.
(1) A local authority shall not have power to alter from one o’clock the hour by which a shop must be closed for the serving of customers on its early closing day; and accordingly in section 1(4) of the Shops Act 1950 the words from “either wholly” where they first occur to the words “two o’clock” and the words “either wholly or to such extent as aforesaid” are hereby repealed. (2) A local authority shall not have power to extend the provisions of the said section 1 to shops to which by virtue of subsection (6) of that section those provisions do not apply; and accordingly the words from “but the local authority” onwards in that subsection are hereby repealed.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
