    This is their stated intention, but there are a bunch of idiots, and even they know it won’t work.

    So this will probably end up getting quietly walked back to avoid yet another embarrassing scandal of governmental uselessness, and you’ll never hear about it again. They are currently getting absolutely rinsed in the enquiry, so hopefully they’re feeling a little bit humble at the moment.
