I think this hits the nail on the head. Pretty much everyone here in the UK is just waiting for the general election to remove the incumbent right wing party. The government itself seems utterly internally divided and unable to find a direction and after a while everyone (cabinet ministers included) is just waiting for it to be over.

So this slips in and most peoples reaction if they know about it at all is "this is not legitimate because the people enforcing it are so weak"

Basically it's set up to be ignored - a populist press release dressed up a legislation.
