Serious Crime Act 2015
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.

(2) The first condition is that the court is satisfied on the balance of probabilities that the respondent has engaged in or has encouraged or assisted— (a) gang-related violence, or (b) gang-related drug-dealing activity. (3) The second condition is that the court thinks it is necessary to grant the injunction for either or both of the following purposes— (a) to prevent the respondent from engaging in, or encouraging or assisting, gang-related violence or gang-related drug-dealing activity; (b) to protect the respondent from gang-related violence or gang-related drug-dealing activity. (4) An injunction under this section may (for either or both of those purposes)— (a) prohibit the respondent from doing anything described in the injunction; (b) require the respondent to do anything described in the injunction. (5) For the purposes of this section, something is “gang-related” if it occurs in the course of, or is otherwise related to, the activities of a group that— (a) consists of at least three people, and (b) has one or more characteristics that enable its members to be identified by others as a group. (6) In this section “violence” includes a threat of violence.

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.
