The Bill was always going to receive a frosty reception in the Lords. If anything, this backs up the assumption that what Davis did was miscalculated - he should have left it to the Lords and then himself as a future Home Secretary to sort out. Unfortunately his action became bigger than the issue. Remember - I am not saying that what Davis did was wrong in principle, I am saying what he did has not worked. If he returns to parliament (as I am sure he will) next week, it will almost certainly be with less people having voted for him. From then on he will be a thorn, not an asset, in Cameron’s side. And all for making very little difference - if anything he smothered the issue. This has very little if nothing to do with Davis’s actions.

But why won't Cameron commit to reversing the decision? http://lettersfromatory.wordpress.com People seem to have completely ignored the appalling quality of the legislation itself which, as she pointed out, makes this whole situation totally impractical.
