I'm started to get a bit scared. Of what? I hear you ask. I'm starting to get scared about the UK government's move further and further towards a kind of big brother state. Over the last couple of years several laws have been introduced that seem to be gradually invading the UK's population's freedom.
We're forever being told that as a result of 9/11 the world has changed, forever. But unlike the USA the UK has always had to deal with terrorist attacks. Throughout the last thirty years we have been subjected to attacks across the country courtesy of the IRA and other groups. Throughout this time we seem to have coped without the wide ranging powers that our current government is now pushing through Parliament.
I'm simply concerned that one day we'll all wake up to discover that it's too late to stop the rapid invasion of our rights and liberties.
