I've got nothing to hide
May. 1st, 2007 08:16 pmSo stop ***ing spying on me
The only place I want surveillance cameras is 10 Downing Street and the House of Commons. Who said we were sleepwaling ito a surveilance society? Running head first with our eyes closed is more like it.
Is there any political party that promises to do things like increase our right to protest, reduce government surveillance, and generally understand that I don't trust them?
Is this really a minority opinion? Do people really prefer to be spied on?
It's time to get political.
The luckykaa election manifesto:
Anything else we need?

The luckykaa election manifesto:
- Anyone who says "If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear" will have spy cameras installed in every room in their homes, broadcast to everyone who wants to look.
- Also anyone who claims prisons are holiday camps will immediately be arrested and sent to one of these "holiday camps". After all, how could they object?
- A reduced tolerance on certain crimes, reflected by an increased police presence in the London Stock exchange
- Tony Blair to be arrested and held under house arrest without charge indefinitely.
- New laws for airline passengers that recognise that knitting needles, nail files and corkscrews are ineffective weapons.
- Any police officer that issues an on the spot fine will be fined £80 if it turns out that the penalty was for extremely trivial reasons.
- Everybody is to be publicly insulted at least once a month. This is to allow those who are in social groups who don't seem to be offended a chance to feel special.
- Proper devolution for Wales, England, Cornwall, and most importantly, London. Londoners really need to learn that problems on the tube, the congestion charge, and often even London's weather do not affect the entirety of the British isles.
Anything else we need?
