Do you really believe that surveillance hasn't been going on for ages? Who shall we blame for that? Are we still quoting from 1984 because that's right out of the Big Brother hand book. In fact its exactly why Big Brother is watching.... to protect you from the enemy within. Ok I'm off for my 2 minute hate, watch out for the telescreen.

And maybe our wonderful governments have their migration policy partly to keep us all nervous, pliable and seemingly reliant on their protection. Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (09 Jan 2017 5.57pm)

Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (09 Jan 2017 5.57pm) Bit of a deflection, we've always had large scale survelliance in the UK, via GCHQ and MI-5, who have an open warrant to act - and its only accessable for counter-terrorism, and neither of those agencys are responsible for non-security information. They don't really need greater powers, however other groups in the UK are reliant on information obtained by MI-5 and GCHQ. Information gathered by these agencies typically cannot be used in court, or provided to other organisations for wider use. The reality is that we already have an effective system, that works and functions very efficiently. The only reason to expand on that, is to make it easier for other state bodies to use that information in areas outside national security and counter-terrorism.

Not really, its very poorly written, and its capacity to back up its arguments and points, is next to non-existent. On the plus side, its a lot lighter to read than The German Ideology by Marx and Engels, but lacks the punchy style of the Communist Manifesto.
