We have a long history in the United Kingdom of both brutal feudal regimes and of writing laws to protect the citizens, or subjects as they used to be called. 

It may be remembered that it was rebel Lords who forced King John into signing the Magna Carta which has been the base for many of our freedoms, the Bill of Rights guaranteed us fundamental rights, and the Act of Union with Scotland primarily devised to stop the bickering between the two nations enhanced those rights, with many generations of Britons having fought and died to protect them.

It has for centuries been the moral base that our laws, which distinguish the difference between right and wrong in our society, the sense of fairness in applying those laws and the rights of the individual have been paramount. Hundreds of years of case law to hone and define those laws. 

In 6 short years all that has been destroyed.

In 6 years over 80 Acts of Parliament have been passed which have stripped the citizens of Britain of the fundamental right of innocence before proven guilt, stripped of the right of an accused to be presented with the evidence, stripped of the right not to be detained without charge, stripped of the right of a trial before a jury of our peers, stripped of the right to silence, stripped of our right to freedom of movement without let or hindrance, and in many cases stripped of our right of free choice. 

How has this happened.?  Is it the work of one man?

If it was the work of one man, it would have been stopped in its tracks by the checks and balances that we had in parliament before the reforms of the way in which both Houses of Parliament now work, before the reform of the make-up of the House of Lords. 

No, it is the work of many, a movement of men and women who together have conspired to defraud the people of this land of their rights, and centre power in a few in Westminster, and perhaps beyond. 

How big this conspiracy is, how far it extends, how far reaching are the conspirators, and how many hangers on are involved, trying to back the winning side is unknown.  

The one thing that is certain is that we could not have come so far down the road of authoritarianism without such a conspiracy, perhaps through coercion and the complicity of many.
 

The silence of the Opposition Parties to these changes are at the very least suspect, and as a minimum would involve them in the complicity.  Indeed it was an opposition whip who introduced a bill to allow government to work in secret.

 

We are finding that government now works with the arrogance of an elite party machine with little regard to the wishes of Parliament, or indeed of Parliament itself.

Failing or placing late documents before the Houses for scrutiny, passing new laws to guarantee government working in secrecy.

Failing to publish key reports such as the Interception of Communications Commissioner and the Intelligence Services Commissioner reports for 2005, (which could possibly prove this conspiracy). Failing to renew the DPA registrations of key services such as the Police, which makes the PNC and DNA illegal databases.

A Home Office that does not know how many people have been re-arrested under terrorism laws, how many people are in prison, where they are or how many have absconded.

A government that has given itself the powers to introduce or change secondary legislation (in effect to rule without parliament).

A government that has forced the BBC to become a mouthpiece for policy, that dare not run critical stories, a defacto state broadcaster.
 

A government that appears to be hell bent on three things to the exclusion of all else. 

Criminalising everything we do.

Collecting as much information and data about us as possible.

Raw propaganda campaigns on government policies, to terrify the public into compliance.
 

The correlation between where we stand in this country right now, and Germany in 1937 as Hitler began to tighten and consolidate his grip on that nation is undeniable, frighteningly similar to the point of using virtually identical laws, and as in Germany to teach Nationalism in our schools, to corrupt our children.

Sir Ken Macdonald QC, Director of Public Prosecutions has confirmed our journey into a totalitarian void and briefed the Criminal Bar Association on 23rd January 2007, in a speech which you can read in full here, warned of the dangers, warned that the failure of the judiciary to uphold our rights and freedoms will be a catastrophe for this nation. 

We as citizens have to hope that the Police and Judiciary are not part of this conspiracy, because it is they alone that can identify, apprehend and bring to book those who wish to see the population of this country managed and controlled by an authoritarian state.

Removing our existing politicians is only one part of the solution, as it is rarely the case that the instigators and builders of such authoritarian societies survive to rule, for once having done their work they are of no further use, but it is the mighty and powerful, the evil in the shadows that will eventually rule our lives, unless we can uncover and expose this conspiracy, and take positive steps to reverse this inexorable step towards totalitarian darkness for Britain.
