The latest bill to hit the legislators proposes amending the existing Mental Health Act from 1983, and would allow the enforced detention of people who are mentally ill, even if they have not committed any crime, and also suggests strengthening powers established in 1983 to ensure patients have therapy. 

A similar Mental Health Act was passed in 1939 by the Nazi regime in Germany, which eventually led to the Action T4 programme by the General Foundation for Welfare and Institutional Care, in order to save money.

This last piece of legislation would nicely round off the trio of Acts already in force, (the other 2 being The Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 and the Terrorism Act 2000),  that would allow government/police to arrest and detain anyone, for anything, irrespective of whether they had committed any crime at all. 

Couple that with the rights of entry into both homes and business premises, and the powers of seizure of papers, computers, documents and equipment, the scope becomes quite frightening.

All 3 of these Acts as independent units go too far in giving powers to the state and reducing the rights and freedoms of the individual, but put them all together then the ability of the state to abuse becomes overwhelming. 

If we then add in the multitude of surveillance methods, cameras, wire taps, bugs, email taps, mobile phone taps, dozens of databases, dozens of registers, passports, ID, shop your neighbour hotlines, etc etc which are not just aimed at terror suspects on the basis of intelligence, but aimed at everyone, absolutely everyone in the country, and we do indeed see a police state.

You cannot seriously tell me that this is for MY security and protection. 

When will our MP’s wake up and begin to join all the dots up….and see the monster that they are creating….
