Let’s face it, things are going seriously wrong in England right now. For the first time in my life I am actually worried about what the immediate future holds.
Fuel prices are through the roof and there’s no sign of them going back down again. Over 80% of the price of a litre of […]

I’ve just been emailed this link by a UKIPper and told to read the last two paragraphs.
If you can’t be bothered to read it yourself, basically a footnote in the EU not-a-constitution says that we accept the European Union Charter and a footnote in that charter says that the death penalty is abolished “except in […]

The system of illegal and unconstitutional summary justice in the form of parking fines has been “reformed” but still has no legal legitimacy.
The Bill of Rights says that “any promise of fine or forfeiture before conviction is illegal and void” - a traffic warden, police officer or private contactor are not judges or juries and any on-the-spot […]

On the Our Kingdom blog, Tom Griffin opines that the DUP will support Liebour in its attempt to increase the amount of time the British state can detain you without charge from 28 days to 42 days.
This would be a bizarre stance for a Northern Irish party to take, particularly when internment was such an […]

Crosby sets out 10 ID principles – Home Office scheme breaks all of them
The government has finally published the report of Sir James Crosby, who was commissioned by Gordon Brown when chancellor [1], to study identity management. Crosby’s conclusions set out 10 clear principles for the design of a “consumer-driven universal ID assurance system” […]

Two men have gone to the European Court of Human Rights in an attempt to get their fingerprints and DNA samples removed from the Police database on the grounds that it’s a breach of their human rights.

The British government plans to allocate every 14 year old child in England a unique ID number which could be tied to the national ID database and will be used to provide access to school records for potential employers and the state.

An attempt by a UKIP member to force a referendum on the EU Constitution has failed.
Stuart Bower argued that Article 3 of the Human Rights Act guarantees the right to free elections and that No Mandate Brown has broken a manifesto promise to give a referendum and is therefore guilty of breach of contract.
No Mandate […]

There is, I believe, a deliberate attempt to stifle all dissent and opposition throughout Federal Europe.
The ”speaker” of the EU Parliament has been given the power to arbitarily decide who can and can’t speak in the EU Parliament after UKIP MEPs staged a legitimate protest against the EU Constitution.  This was done to protect freedom of speech, […]

From the UKIP website … 
The President of the European Parliament has moved to crush all opposition to the Lisbon Treaty by Eurosceptic MEPs.
Hans-Gert Pottering wants to throw away the rule book to allow him absolute power in refusing to allow points of order, procedural motions and votes by roll call if he thinks they could […]

No Mandate Brown and Jacqui Smith are both pressing ahead with plans to increase the amount of time a “terrorist” suspect can be held without charge from 28 days to 42 days.

The British government is changing the rules on parking fines in England.
The Northern Irish Secretary of State for Transport, Ruth Kelly, and her 3 Ministers for Transport (two of which are Scottish of course) are introducing changes to the rules in England so that variable rates of parking fines can be implemented and to remove the […]

The Scottish Executive have ruled out a ban on Scottish prison officers going on strike saying that they have an agreement for binding arbitration in the event of a dispute with prison officers.
Jack Straw intends to ban prison officers in England and Wales from striking if a voluntary arbitration […]

Yesterday I posted an email I sent to my MP giving just a few reasons why the state doesn’t need to extend the amount of time someone can be held without charge from 28 days.
Today there is a perfect example of why it is unnecessary.
The canoeist, John Darwin, who was reported missing 5 years ago […]

Jacqui Smith, the Home Secretary, has pronounced that the state should be allowed to detain “terrorism” suspects without charge for 42 days.  The 28 day limit that we currently have is already longer than any other developed nation.  The British government has already admitted that there have been no occasions when the current 28 day […]

No Mandate Brown is slowly but surely revealing himself as the tin-pot dictator we all know him to be.
Between 2009 and 2014, new rules will come into force requiring 53 pieces of information to be captured and handed over to the state for every journey in and out of the country.  As well as the […]

The British government has decided that it now wants to hold “terrorist suspects” for 58 days without charge.
A few months back Liebour tried to change the amount of time someone could be held without charge from 2 weeks to 3 months.  Thankfully this was blocked but a compromise was reached allowing suspects to be held […]

Yet another new offence came into being yesterday - inciting religious hatred.
The hand-wringing apologists that brought about the incitement to racial hatred laws, where you don’t have to actually incite racial hatred to commit an offence but just need to say something that someone who isn’t white and English might take offence at, have been […]

The British government, acting on instructions from their masters in Federal Europe, have abolished our right to privacy.
Jacqui Smith, the new Home Secretary, signed a Statutory Instrument in July bringing an EU Durective into force requiring all phone records to be kept for at least one year and made available to various state agencies and even local […]

Despite the fact that judges - like the police - are supposed to be the independent upholders of the law, Lord Justice Sedley has called for everyone to be on a DNA database.
Sedley says that the current system is unfair because only people who have been involved with the police are on the database.  He […]

The Identity & Passport Service website has some “FAQs and myths” on its website about ID Cards and the National Identity Register.  The pages in question can be found at http://www.identitycards.gov.uk/faqs-and-myths.asp
Lets have a look at some of the “FAQs” and “myths”:

Who will be eligible to have an ID card?
Anyone over the age of 16 and […]

The BBC has started publishing the British government’s ID card propaganda.
There is a link on the BBC News website tonight entitled “Fingertip search: How biometric border controls are tackling illegal immigration”.  The article is talking about what the British government says is going to happen in the future assuming they manage to get biometrics working […]

Traitor Bliar got upset a while back when a Tory MP suggested we were living in a police state.  What does he think now?
The Home Office is considering giving Police the power to take DNA samples and fingerprints, without the consent of the “offender” for minor “crimes” such as not wearing a seatbelt, speeding and […]

The English language sometimes makes it hard to convey your actual meaning in writing but, on the other hand, it makes for suitably ambiguous headlines like this one.
Some time ago, the British government tried to change the law so that “terrorist suspects” could be locked up for 3 months without charge.  The attempt failed as even […]

No Mandate Brown has already spoken in favour of giving the state the power to detain people suspected of terrorism for 3 months without charge. Now Lord Carlile, the “independent” advisor to the Goblin King’s rump cabinet on anti-terrorism laws, is saying that politicians should make the decision on how long suspects can be […]

The Metropolitan Police spent £111k last year trying to remove Brian Haw, the anti-war protester who embarasses the British government outside Parliament.
The British government brought in a new law banning any form of protest - peaceful or otherwise, within 1km of Parliament and sought to use it to remove Brian Haw. Unfortunately for them […]

Four UKIP MEPs - including Leader, Nigel Farage - were threatened with arrest by the Belgian Police outside the European Parliament building as they staged a peaceful protest against the EU Constitution.
The MEPs had taken an inflatable bulldozer with “Clearing the way for the EU Constitution” written on the side of it and had inflated […]

Support for the amendment to the Freedom of Information Act that will exempt MPs from the regulations has dropped significantly and it looks likely that the bill will be rejected by the Lords.
That is assuming, of course, that the bill makes it that far because divisions within the Commons means that the bill may run […]

The Fraud (Trials without a Jury) Bill, which seeks to remove the right to trial by jury for fraud cases, is due for its second reading in the Lords.

John Reid, the British Home Secretary, wants to try and change the law again to allow the state to hold suspected terrorists for more than 28 days without charge.

The British government wants to tackle the “English drinking culture” which makes binge drinking, drunkenness and anti-social behaviour acceptable.
Vernon Coaker, a pretend minister at the Home Office, wants to change the perception that it’s “acceptable to drink to get drunk” and the campaign will not only target young binge drinkers out for a night on […]

The Tartan Taxman, Prime Minister-designate and all-round nice guy, wants to restore trust in politics.  That’s what he said a couple of weeks ago.  So why isn’t he jumping up and down demanding the heads of whoever has instructed the Office of Government Commerce (OGC) to shred documents rather than release them under the FOI Act?
An […]

It appears New Liebour have inadvertently proved the theory of time travel by slowly moving us back to 1984.
There was a joke email doing the rounds a couple of years ago saying that the estate of George Orwell were sueing the Labour Party for breach of copyright.  It was funny at the time but I think someone at Liebour […]

The Home secretary, John Reid, is planning to try and push through new “anti-terrorism” laws in just four weeks that will allow police officers to stop people, require proof of their identity and question them about their movements.  Anyone refusing to provide their name or co-operate with the police if stopped and questions will be […]

The Home Secretary, John Reid, is considering declaring a state fo emergency after 3 suspected terrorists have disappeared whilst subject to a control order.
Control Orders are like tagging and ASBOs - the subject is told what they can and can’t do and the authorities take action if they breach conditions of the order.  This is fine […]

Alistair Campbell, the cretinous tosspot who used to head up Labour’s Propaganda Department, suggests that bloggers should sign up to a voluntary code of practice and practice self-censorship.
I can’t speak for other bloggers but I already parctice self-censorship.  I don’t post anything libelous and I moderate my language.  What more should I do?  Stop criticising […]

New passports feature a “secure” RFID chip with all your details on them.  The RFID chip allows the details on your passport to be read by a scanner without actually coming into contact with the passport.
The British government introduced the RFID chip for a couple of reasons - firstly, the American’s will only waive the […]

Hazel Blears, the Labour Stazi Chairman, has confirmed that the “heavyweight successor” Bliar was referring to during the Queen’s Speech debate in the Ignorant Jock.

Common sense has prevailed.  Nick Griffin, leader of the BNP, has been found not guilty on race hate charges.
The whole trial was a joke.  His comments were in opposition to Islam - a religion - and the charges were race hate.  The judge said that he was merely expressing his freedom of speech - a […]
