Shocking that we don't have the lowest crime rate in the world with the highest detection rate...........

And as we don't, then is the encroachment on our freedom worth the price we pay? I for one say no.

So, Government type people, tell me EVERYTHING about your expense claims. Then we can talk about whether I want you spying on me just to make sure I'm not breaking any rules.

yes

And everything about internet sites visited.

Also TV channels watched (but no need now for Mr Jacqui 'Pron' Smith)

Black box in car monitoring speed.

E-mails randomly checked.

Bank accounts monitored.

Tax returns published.

If they've got nothing to hide they've got nothing to fear sonar

I watched it. The content was interesting but the camerawork was BLOODY ANNOYING.

Why do TV producers and directors think that constant camera shake, inability to keep the thing still, waving it about like brolly in a hurricane, zooming in and out like you still haven't realised youre pressing the Zoom Button and deliberately pulling the camera in and out of focus makes something more watchable.

IT DOESN'T.
