> So bad is this legislation that it's almost enough to make me change my views on Brexit.

I don't know how you came to that conclusion. Did you read the legislation? Which points of this legislation made you think that this is "enough to change view on Brexit" ?

EDIT: Well, downvoting this comment will not make the discussion any better. I've read most of the legislation, that's why I am asking why OP is reacting like that, wanted to clarify his objections (if any).

I believe the comment could be summed up as "maybe the UK should leave the EU after all" because of how overreaching the legislation looks to be.
