And coming from the nation that had an organized child sex slavery ring running in govt...

I dunno, but here in crazy world (the US), the more the prudes harp about dirty dirty sex, the more likely you are to find them playing footsie in the public lavatory.

Just saying, be more careful.

Anglosphere is kill

*EDIT
Two things:
1) Since it's here: Snoopers Charter petition
2) I LOVED how Nigel got upset with the government for not giving him the job. It'd be like me going into Gregg's and throwing a paddy because I wasn't given the job of interacting with the pastry-loving public.
Sauce pls
All I got was Nigel throwing a party with top bants, warning May to get Britain Brexed by 2020 or UKIP everywhere

Farage can's even get UKIP to undergo Nigexit without having to go back to tide things over as Interim leader.  (At least Titford took eight years off before becoming the interim leader preceding Nigel's original stint.)

So how about that £226m a week cost of Brexit, eh? I do hope we keep free movement of people, I might be able to go to a more prosperous country like Poland or Romania to earn money for my family.

People who say that the innocent have nothing to fear are wrong

Yeah why does this myth keep coming up? Everytime I've heard it used the exact opposite was true.

For ONCE can we have someone say that and it actually be true?

The innocent have nothing to fear from me.

There you go, that's literally the only time it will ever be true, I avoid killing insects which have done me no harm, I'm certainly not going after anything larger which hasn't done anything to me.

One of the UK's leading obscenity lawyers, Myles Jackman, seems to be mounting a challenge to this new Digital Economy bill. Probably a slim hope, but at this point, perhaps our best one.
Otherwise, I imagine you'll get fewer arguments here and elsewhere from people in 'political minorities', given the chilling effect government surveillance has on unpopular opinions. Not that the government will be complaining about that.
For my part, I'll certainly be a lot more hesitant to post things that could conceivably attract any unwanted attention.
One day we shall all unironically say Tony Blair did nothing wrong, all Americans unaware of the cameras down our spine :DDDDDD

Isn't this about the fifth time they try just up there, after they tried countless times across Europe states, just this one time they managed to snuck it in faster than outrage can react?

You should get the message by now. They will try anything until they succeed. You cannot protest forever and they have time on their side.

People will is irrelevant.

Nah, problem is people's will is nonexistent for some things. Data capture is one of those things. Apathy is killer, people attach onto popular labels and symbols but most simply don't have the time, patience or values to care
Likewise repealing comes with people's will, but it has to exist first

The bill has been defeated by public outcry several times. Just this time they managed to sneak it through while other things were going on.

I take heart in that, despite everything, we can still enjoy great British comedy:
