Dr Sean Gabb on “how to destroy the Enemy Class”: the Big-Brother-State will then shrivel to the size of a pickled prune

10 November, 2008

David Davis I make no apology for re-syndicating a seminal paper by Sean Gabb, Director of the Libertarian Alliance, from 2001. The problems of Big-Brother-Statism have got only worse since then because too few people have paid attention. The broad Enemy Class relies on the fact that it’s made us become too busy even to […]

National register of voters

9 November, 2008

British Politics In yet another example of the government riding roughshod over the people of this country is the news that they are moving ahead in any event with plans to establish a centralised national register of voters, together with central checking and verification of the data held on electoral registers. The system, to be implemented in […]

Big Brother, speed cameras and a Hoontroid

9 November, 2008

David Davis Someone called “Geoff” “Hoon” (how can you give a job to someone called that?) suggests “average speed cameras” as being “fairer”… The only kind of “fair” State Cameras are the non-existent ones. Personnally, I find the extremely submissive and tolerant attitude of the British to all this stuff, well, inexplicable.

Big Brother Britain and the fight back

9 November, 2008

Firstly I would like to thank David Davis at the Libertarian Alliance for agreeing to contribute unique articles to this blog on the subject of Big Brother Britain. I originally set up this blog, because whilst I have my own blog containing my views and opinions of British politics (Power to the People), I felt that […]

Scary video

8 November, 2008

David Davis This is a bit scary, but hey now! You didn’t come to this blog to be told how nice it is to live under a Panopticon State. This stuff has not been viewed enough for our liking here, so we will forthwith promote it:-

Waking up, slowly…..

How the Conservatives were the first party in modern-times to propose State Identity Cards

8 November, 2008

David Davis (not that one…) Amid the current ID-card-driven masturbatory glee of our “home” “secretary”, “Jacqui” “Smith” over how many people “come up to her and say they want one” (one what?), it’s worth recalling what Michael Howard said in 1994. So, here I reprint a pamphlet by Dr Sean Gabb making the case comprehensively […]

Hazel Blears politically naive?

7 November, 2008

Well, yes I think she probably is, which would explain why she has been given the position of Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government. Given the state of both, she needs to spend more time in the office and less at the Hansard Society. It would appear that Hazel, I hope such an important person, at […]

Jacqui Smith, ID cards and Big Brother Britain

7 November, 2008

Stop it Now! Up until a few months ago, the only person I knew that supported the introduction of identity cards, was my wife. After a few heated debates, questions, answers and what-if’s, she eventually conceded that it wasn’t such a great idea. We have a very democratic process in our house, something like the […]
