Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024
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
236 Inertia selling
(1) This section applies where a trader engages in the unfair commercial practice described at paragraph 31 of Schedule 20. (2) The consumer is exempted from any obligation to pay for (or provide any other consideration for) the products supplied by the trader. (3) In the case of a supply of goods that has not been requested, the consumer may, as between the consumer and the trader, use, deal with or dispose of the goods as if they were an unconditional gift to the consumer. (4) The absence of a response from a consumer following the supply of the product does not constitute consent from the consumer to comply with the trader’s demand for the consumer to— (a) pay for the product; (b) return the product; (c) safely store the product.

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.
