The Farce That Once Was Britain.
Is it just me or is Britain rapidly turning into some kind of ‘police state’? We seem to have an ever-increasing amount of control being forced upon us in so many different ways -
· There are now more CCTV systems in Britain than any other country in Europe. And this means being scrutinised just about anywhere that we go.
· We are being swamped with bureaucracy and red tape (and most of this originates in Brussels) on a daily basis. Sure, a civilised society must have a certain amount of rules, but do we really need this many???
· Being British is supposed to mean having ‘freedom of speech’fitted as standard. However, when you look at the way that protests are handled it makes you wonder how much freedom we really do have…
· Health and Safety regulations (Brussels again!) are becoming so restrictive that we will soon not even be allowed to leave our homes. Isn’t it a little over the top to expect children to don protective equipment before engaging in a ‘dangerous’game of ‘Conkers’?
I am slowly becoming convinced that David Cameron will one day go the whole hog and turn into a cruel and ruthless dictator! Or perhaps he will morph into ‘the Beast’from the Bible’s ‘Book of Revelation’?
You think I sound paranoid? Well, ask yourself this; if you were roaming worldwide , how many countries would make you feel like a social pariah simply for having a cigarette in your mouth? Because smokers are certainly made to feel ‘dirty’in Britain…
