It doesn’t matter whether you are an elected politician or a shitbag terrorist. You don’t get to bomb densely packed civilian areas or fire rockets into towns without answering to charges of war crimes.
The face of a cunt
Alan Johnson parades the new ID card that is being rolled out in Manchester. The expectation is the students whose grants are delayed due to governmental incompetence, will fork out £30 in order to buy beer in bars.
Note that the card he is flashing is a fake, the bastard can’t even sign himself up for a real one.
In answer to a question from Christopher Price MP, Home Secretary Merlyn Rees said that under the control of the Metropolitan Police there are nine closed-circuit television cameras on fixed sites used mainly for crowd and traffic control.
Mr Rees added: "The Home Office has asked chief officers to satisfy themselves that the use of surveillance equipment is justified in all circumstances and is authorised at an appropriately senior level in the force. Chief officers are well aware of the sensitivity of material obtained in this way’.

Surveillance not to be used to catch litter droppers
Council leaders have been warned this week to stop using surveillance equipment to crack down on “trivial” matters such as “dog fouling and littering”.
In a letter sent to councils this week, Sir Simon Milton, Conservative chairman of the Local Government Association (LGA) called on authorities to undertake an urgent review of surveillance operations carried out under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA).
The letter stated that powers in the Act should only be used after “careful consideration” and that the required operations are “necessary and proportionate to prevent or detect a criminal offence”, as stipulated in the Act
Don’t get me wrong I thoroughly dislike the Conservatives, which is why I am appalled that this pig’s arse of a Government has allowed them to start sounding OK.
