On 10th December I sent a letter to my MP, David Wright, about the British Home Secretary, Jack Straw, vetoing the release of minutes of a 1997 cabinet meeting on devolution via WriteToThem.com.  He didn’t reply but he’s just agreed on Twitter to reply to questions I’ve asked him on Twitter and to my letter so here [...]

British Home Secretary, Alan Johnson, has said that he will use the Public Order Act to ban the Islam4UK protest in Wooton Bassett planned by Anjem Choudary.  He said “The idea that anyone would stage this kind of demonstration in Wootton Bassett fills me with revulsion”.

Female prisoners are very different to male prisoners, and while there is a consensus that we need to be tougher on male offenders there is also a broad consensus that where possible we should punish and reform females in the community and not in prisons.
- Jack Straw 
What the fucking fuck?  No, seriously, what in the [...]

The Demon Headmaster Jack Straw has backed down on trying to remove the defence of freedom of speech from a new law making inciting homophobic hatred a criminal offence.

This new law – along [...]

Three more drugs advisers from the British government’s Advisory Council for the Misuse of Drugs have resigned following the sacking of Professor David Nutt.

West Midlands Police have advised cinemas in Birmingham not to show an independent film about black gang warfare filmed and produced in Birmingham because it is negatively stereotypical.  Cineworld and Odeon have refused to show the film in Birmingham as a result.
This is just wrong.  Very wrong.  It is not the place of the police [...]

Nick Griffin will be on Question Time tonight in front of what is probably going to be the bigget TV audience Question Time has ever had.
And the reason why Griffin is going to be getting this huge amount of publicity?  Because the anti-democratic, anti-BNP idiots have made such a fuss about him appearing on the [...]

“Faith groups and traders” and councillors in Manchester are asking the Home Secretary to ban a protest by the English Defence League that is planned for next month citing the violence at their Birmingham marches as justification for depriving them of their constitutional right to protest.
The Daily Telegraph says:
Gangs of men and youths hurled bottles [...]

The British government has unveiled the design of its ID card and shock horror, it doesn’t have a British flag on it.  Instead, it will have four symbols to represent the four nations (the British government’s words) of the UK.
There was a suggestion that it would have the European Empire’s ring of stars on it [...]

The British government has abandoned its plans to force airside workers in London City and Manchester airports to sign up for ID cards after workers and unions kicked up a fuss.

The Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales has ruled that a trial can take place without a jury for the first time.

The British Prime Minister has announced plans to force all English children to carry out at least 50 hours of community service before the age of 19.
Luckily, the plans are in his manifesto pledge for the next British elections and are therefore extremely unlikely to ever come to fruition for the two very good reasons [...]

A policeman from Newcastle has been convicted of causing death by dangerous driving after hitting a 16 year old girl who walked into the road in front of him.
The policeman was doing 94mph in a 30mph limit without his blue lights and sirens, hence the dangerous driving charge, but he was on duty and accelerating [...]

The Identity and Passport Service (IPS) has awarded £650m of contracts to CSC and IBM to build its national identity register even though the Tories said they will repeal ID card and national identity register legislation when they win the next election.
The IPS have justified pissing £650m up the wall because they need to record [...]

From today, internet service providers will have to keep a 12 month record of every email you send and website you visit for use by the Ministerium für Staatssicherheit.
Ironically, the European Empire is calling on member states to keep a closer eye on companies that monitor internet usage and carry an illegal or disproportionate amount of surveillance!
You [...]

The Department for Children, Schools and Families had a full page advert in the Shropshire Star last night for their ContactPoint database.

A copper from Merseyside has been sacked after his name turned up on the BNP membership list that was leaked in November.
Even though the BNP, odious as it is, is a legal political party, police officers aren’t allowed to be members.  The reason the police give is that being a member of the BNP means [...]

The British government is making yet another database – this time with details of all overseas travel.
The database will store names, addresses, phone numbers, seat reservations, travel itineraries and credit card details for every trip made.  And the reason?  Fighting crime, illegal immigration and terrorism of course!  How many travel itineraries are likely to say [...]

It seems that there’s at least one judge in England with enough backbone to uphold the constitution and protect our fundamental rights.
A High Court judge has ruled that Liebour’s flagship class war weapon, the ban on hunting with dogs, does not include a ban on using dogs to search for and flush out animals and [...]

Via the Devils Kitchen, this from Raedwald:
Have you paid a parking fine recently? Got three points on your licence? Been formally warned by the council for your bin protruding on the footway? (yep, I have had the £1,000 fine threat on the last one) Been suspended from your Sunday football league for rough tackling? (yes, [...]

What a surprise, the Liebour Stazi have suppressed democracy again.
A motion was put forward to set up a committee to investigate the arrest of Damian Green MP, the police search of his MPs office without a warrant and the complicity of the Speaker and the Serjeant at Arms in the search.  It would have seven committee [...]

You may recall that back in August I wrote about the NHS deciding it was going to weigh and measure children in England, check them against the Body Mass Index (BMI) and then send parents a letter to tell them if the computer says their child is fat or thin.  You may also recall that [...]

Two English men have successfully challenged South Yorkshire Police’s decision to retain their DNA samples even though neither of them have been convicted of a crime.

MPs are going to have a hard enough job explaining to a lot of people why it is they should be immune from civil proceedings for things they say and do in parliament and why the police shouldn’t be able to search their parliamentary offices and take away documents they find there.
There is a good [...]

In a civillised democracy a member of an opposition political party would be commended for making public some embarrassing piece of information about the serving government.  Information relating to the employment of an illegal immigrant at the Home Office, the Security Industry Authority giving licences to illegal immigrants or a letter from the Home Secretary [...]

It’s not very often I come out in defence of an MP and even less often a Liebour MP but I have to defend Paul Flynn MP over the attempted censorship of his blog.
Flynn makes fun of his fellow MPs and gives them nicknames on his blog.  Some of the things he says about his [...]

According to Jacqui Smith, we all want ID cards as soon as possible.
So many people stop her in the street and tell her they don’t want to wait to hand permanent control of their identity to the British government and have all their personal details and biometric data stored in a big database forever that [...]

The British government is photographing every house from the air with infrared cameras and then knocking on doors and telling residents how much heat is escaping from their homes.
The figures will, of course, be stored in the obligatory database that will no doubt be linked to the council tax database at some point to tax [...]
