You seem to completely fail to see that whilst all these pedantic, petty new laws and schemes will achieve nothing towards making problems disappear, they are very effective at reigning people like you a step closer to the type of political regime that good people of this country and others have given their lives to protect against.
What next? The Gestapo mingling with the public looking for anyone who dislikes Ken Livingstone? Are you aware of these exact historical balls-ups?
Adolf Hitler was a person we do not wish to see the likes of again, TSM, but what many fail to realise is that he did not take control of Germany, he was put there, by misguided German people, under the illusion that he would sort out Germany's problems. Go do your homework and think about that.
I'd urge you to give some serious thought to the next restrictive policy announced before giving it your blessings.

At risk of committing one myself, you probably don't realise how close you are. Don't forget that this is the government a few years ago who wanted to microchip all babies at birth (under the guise of reducing baby snatches from maternity units, but I 'spect I know the real reason

If you want a real dose of the frighteners, just do a 'net search for the
Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill and if that doesn't worry you, search for the popular alternative name,
Abolition of Parliament Bill, and if you're still not worried, search for
Nazi Enabling Act and see if you can spot the similarities (if you can't, try the same search
without "Nazi").
