From today it is illegal to photograph police.
So, if you see a policeman behaving unjustly, beating up a fellow citizen or himself breaching the peace, remember to take out with you a pencil, eraser and piece of paper so you can say, "Officer, please can you just hold that pose for a while, I know I can't take a picture of your brazen injustice, but can I just do a drawing, please? I mean, I'm not that good, but it would be really helpful if you could just hold that pose."
It's unenforceable anyway, just use your mobile phone while pretending to make a phone call.
ReplyDeleteBut the fact that Britain is turning into a fascist police state is less remarkable than the fact that nobody is really that bothered. When the economy gets worse we will end up with a xenophobic totalitarian government. This is likely as they are doing everything to make the economic crisis worse than it would be if they let it take its course. The seemingly impossible combination of hyperinflation and mass unemployment will be a toxic mix.
I know...things are getting bad...what shall we do?
