Do you feel less watched these days?

I stumbled on this article written in 2009 and it sent shivers down my spine. It describes how the UK was rapidly being turned into a Police State by New Labour. A country where even your rubbish bin would interrogate you via CCTV. A country where a brutal cop could blatantly knock an innocent man, Ian Tomlinson, to the ground and watch him die, knowing nothing would happen.
A country where spooks could shoot an innocent man, Jean Charles Menendez, dead, in cold blood , and in public view and expect to walk away unscathed and unpunished and a country in which ?Trillions coud be ferreted away by the rich tax free, while the government turned a blind eye. A country where groups of paedophiles could roam free, because of their ethnicity, under the noses of police forces, cowed in terror by political correctness. A perverse country where if you dared remonstrate or defend yourself from an attacker, it would be YOU who would feel the weight of the law! It would be you that would have to pay your attacker, compensation for "Undue upset!"
Read the article, breathe a sigh of relief and thank God New Labour were booted out of office. Remind yourself just how close we were to tyranny.
The Coalition might be a bit crap, they make U turns and fuck-ups but at least they are "Human" They don't all speak as one, like the scary New Labour nutters did. They do not appear to have plans to enslave us all in a New Labour superstate. A place where you and I are pissed on daily, but the "great and good", the fat cats, the bankers, the billionaire tax dodgers, the criminals and benefit cheats are feted on by those in power.
Has anyone else noticed these days you don't feel so, "Watched?" The speed cameras don't flash so readily, you can be late back to a car park and not find some little Hitler has shoved a ticket on your car after 5 seconds over the time. Things are just a bit more relaxed.
You only realise how precious freedom is, when it is taken away from you. How quickly we forget. That gang of crooks on the shadow front bench would have happily watched all of us shackled and silenced inside their dictatorship and they have the bare faced cheek to mock the government. They should all be locked up!
Be reminded:
