Identity Documents Act 2010
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 Cancellation of ID cards etc
(1) No ID cards are to be issued by the Secretary of State at any time on or after the day on which this Act is passed. (2) All ID cards that are valid immediately before that day are to be treated as cancelled by the Secretary of State at the end of the period of one month beginning with that day. (3) As soon as reasonably practicable after that day, the Secretary of State must send a letter to every cardholder— (a) informing the cardholder that the cardholder's ID card is to be treated as cancelled as mentioned in subsection (2), and (b) providing the cardholder with such information about the consequences of its cancellation as the Secretary of State considers appropriate. (4) A letter under subsection (3) must be sent to the address recorded (at the time it is sent) in the National Identity Register as the address of the cardholder's principal place of residence in the United Kingdom. (5) For the purposes of this section a person is a “cardholder” if— (a) an ID card has been issued to the person, and (b) the ID card is valid immediately before the day on which this Act is passed. (6) In this section “ID card” has the same meaning as in the Identity Cards Act 2006.

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.
