Told you so!

"An extension of police powers to stop and search anyone near a
protest camp in Kent is undermining civil liberties, two MPs and an
MEP have said.

South East MEP Caroline Lucas and MPs Norman Baker and Colin Challen
have written to the Kent force with concerns about the policing of the
protest..."

"...Discretionary powers to allow police to stop and search people
have been extended to the whole of the Hoo peninsula.

"I think it is undermining our civil liberties and, at the moment at
least, there is no reasonable grounds to be doing that," said Dr
Lucas..."

Gosh! Some MPs and MEPs have said it, so it *must* be true. And I
thought you hated our political system ...

Supporting MPs and MEPs is hardly being an anarchist is it?

It does help to show that Doug is a capitalist when it suits him, (i.e.
taking what ever suits his purpose from anywhere he can).

Not so, one basic requirement of a Capitalist is that he has some capital.

To be a true capitalist yes, but to support said capitalists you don't
need a penny... The Daily Wail website is free to use. As is the Daily
Telegraph. He may get the government to pay his web access too if he's a
pensioner. :-)

Just because they happen to agree with me doesn't mean I am supporting
them but it does show how widespread concerns are over the illegal
policing of the Climate Camp.

technology could have a far reaching effect on all forms of
transport.if it ever becomes viable.

Here is more on the political policing of the Climate Camp.
