ID cards to be forced on us? Check. Pointlessly over-riding the market in an utterly hypocritical PR move? Check. Final step – attempt to introduce thoughtcrime. Won’t somebody rid me of this troublesome government? Update: This. Update 2: Also this … Continue reading →

Total ban on smoking in public places by 200-odd votes? BASTARDS. That’s it, this country is beyond redemption.
