Laxer

The UK's ruling regime has made the sudden decision not to recognize the GRCs of any country with laxer standards than the UK. Since it previously recognized the GRCs of such countries without issue, and since it only decided to do this after Scotland lowered its standards, the root of this decision can only be contempt for Scottish autonomy.

This question, which, like many others, is only one of a laxer or stricter use of words, seems to have greatly exercised the minds both of Aristotle and Plato.
