So as I understand it the police and Magistrates are quite happy about the erosion of our rights, but not about the suggested level of fines. Thanks chaps and chapesses we now know who not to look to in order to protect the common mans basic rights.

One young PC told us that we were lucky to be living in a democracy. In Tony Blair’s Britain, who dares to even question it ?

Ken on Sep 13th, 2006Tossing Away the Veto on Justice and Home Affairs
THE spin machine is playing the resignation of Hartlepool MP Iain Wright as a matter of principle. This might be true, but the principle has more to do with his political career than with the best interests of the people of Hartlepool.
