Last-minute application or no, there is no excuse for retrospective legislation. And all those whose licences are granted before the change should be treated the same in future.

So sometimes an MP asks for someone's postal address to check whether or not they are a constituent. Oldrightie - thanks, changed.

I put comments on my MPs site and they were not allowed until I gave my postal address. When I enquired I was told: "However parliamentary rules require that you provide your postal address before your email can be further processed." Why are these comments enabled?
