Opening section - undue emphasis on Constitution Reform Group

[edit]

I am not sure that this belongs in the opening section or indeed in the article: "Since 2015 he has been a member of the Steering Committee of the Constitution Reform Group (CRG), a cross-party pressure group chaired by Robert Gascoyne-Cecil, 7th Marquess of Salisbury, which seeks a new constitutional settlement in the UK. The Constitution Reform Group's Act of Union Bill 2018 was introduced as a Private Member's Bill by Lord Lisvane in the House of Lords on 9 October 2018, when it received a formal first reading. The Bill has been described by the BBC as "one to watch" in the current Parliament."

It seems to me that this is more about the CRG and its activities than about David Burnside and putting it here would seem to suggest it is of crucial importance to his career. Yet the Bill mentioned does not seem to be that relevant to his career and the "one to watch" article cited does not mention him. In fact it does not seem to describe the bill as "one to watch", but rather the MP Bim Afolami. Dunarc (talk) 22:56, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
