U-turn if you want to

Caroline Spelman announces a u-turn on the government's plans to privatize forests in England. Proof that if you fight these people hard enough in an organized way, you can get them to back down. Let's just hope that this is only the first of the government's unworkable policies to fall apart. This gives me hope in particular for a climb-down on Theresa May's draconian, probably unenforceable immigration proposals, which would do huge harm to British companies and universities (as well as to my own chances of getting back into the country...).
