Hi all
Here's an article I read today, an example of a Police State surely!
Quote:
From 2006 Britain will be the first country where every journey by every car will be monitored.
Britain is to become the first country in the world where the movements of all vehicles on the roads are recorded. A new national surveillance system will hold the records for at least two years.
Using a network of cameras that can automatically read every passing number plate, the plan is to build a huge database of vehicle movements so that the police and security services can analyse any journey a driver has made over several years.
It won’t be long and we won’t be able to blow our nose without being observed and photographed. No matter what we do the police will be watching. This must surely be one way of promoting a climate of fear among the people so they can be kept under greater control. :(

Deadbeat Dads Could be Tagged
LONDON - Tougher penalties against absent fathers who refuse to make child maintenance payments will be included in a shake-up of Britain's Child Support Agency next month.
New sanctions being considered by ministers include imposing curfews backed by electronic tagging to restrict the movements of fathers. Ministers will also order much greater use of existing but little-used powers such as confiscating driving licences.
Government figures show that only nine absent parents have been banned from driving and only 27 sent to jail since these penalties for non-payment were introduced in 2001.
Tagging is seen as a more realistic option than prison, since parents could remain in work and keep up their maintenance payments.
John Prescott has told tax inspectors to use satellites to snoop on householders' attempts to improve their homes.
Images of new conservatories and garages taken from space will be used to hike up council taxes and other property levies, official guidance obtained by The Independent on Sunday reveals.
Mr Prescott's department is overseeing the creation of a database containing the details of every house in Britain to help tax inspectors to assess new charges.
Even minor improvements, invisible from the road, will be caught by "spy in the sky" technology that uses a mix of aerial and satellite images taken over time to spot changes.
