What are they thinking?

Apparently "the government is to revive a plan to store every email, webpage visit and phone call made in the UK, a move that goes against a pledge made by the Liberal Democrats ahead of the election." http://bit.ly/bGjqjg

Well I for one did not vote LibDem for this to happen and why I spoke out against some ISPs that proposed with the Phorm; the government trying to resurrect a similar idea would surely fall foul of the EU privacy directives that nearly got the last lot into hot water. http://bit.ly/3Ek27P

As for the Spending Review; the millionaires amongst the cabinet are not going to feel the cold, but the pensioner on £95 quid a week is going to notice the loss of services and support. How long before they think about poor laws once again, workhouse anyone?

What lazy thinking of the present crew in the Cabinet!
