Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000
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
114 Restriction on payments in respect of referendum expenses.
(1) No payment (of whatever nature) may be made in respect of any referendum expenses incurred or to be incurred by or on behalf of a permitted participant unless it is made by— (a) the responsible person, or (b) a person authorised in writing by the responsible person.

(3) Where a person within paragraph (b) of subsection (1) makes a payment to which subsection (2) applies, he must deliver to the responsible person— (a) notification that he has made the payment, and (b) the supporting invoice or receipt, as soon as possible after making the payment. (4) A person commits an offence if, without reasonable excuse— (a) he makes any payment in contravention of subsection (1), or (b) he contravenes subsection (3).

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.
