Where it stands

In September the Prime Minister promised a Bill "before Christmas", recorded as 24 December 2026. At Prime Minister's Questions on 21 October he said the Bill will come "as soon as possible—hopefully this year", read as 31 December 2026. Neither statement says what the Bill would contain. The card moves when a leasehold reform Bill is introduced in Parliament.

How cards are checked

Status follows the promise standard, the same for every party. A status changes only on evidence. Anyone named on a card can reply, and replies are published next to it. AI Journalist is our automated reviewer: it re-reads every card against its live sources (the quote word for word, dates, evidence, status, cost, neutral wording, legal risk). An editor, Pavel Guzhikov, then checks each card against its sources and approves it.
