Crime and Policing Act 2026
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.

(3) An anonymity order may not require— (a) D to be screened to such an extent that D cannot be seen by— (i) the judge or other members of the court (if any), or (ii) the jury (if there is one); (b) D’s voice to be modulated to such an extent that D’s natural voice cannot be heard by any persons within paragraph (a)(i) or (ii). (4) The court that made an anonymity order may vary or discharge the order if satisfied that it is necessary in the interests of justice to do so. (5) In this section— “qualifying offence” has the meaning given by section 200(2); “specified” means specified in the anonymity order concerned.

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.
