  OSA was brought in by the tories.

  You know that, i know that. But from the publics perception the act came in while labour where in power. And that’s all that matters.

  You could make a solid argument that it was done deliberately, to discredit the next government as the tories knew it wouldn’'t be them.

  Labour could have turned round and said that the rules where brought in by the last government. But no, they then doubled down on it and started calling opponents of the act nonces.

  So from the lay persons perspective, labour bought it in, and then called everyone a nonce.

    Like a lot of things. Such as the awful financial thresholds for migration that are nonsensical and xenophobic.
