The UK is becoming fascist just like with the Stasi in Germany. Encouraging people to report their Neighbours This will also be abused with people who have grudges and likely without any evidence! Don’t give up liberty for temporary security! ukstasi NoSnitching NWO

, how about a tool to allow citizens to report when metpoliceuk officers abuse their powers? Or a tool for reporting when citizens see the govt. acting illegally e.g. lying about WMD to start a war with Iraq?

, perhaps we could have another tool for reporting media articles that are proven to be false or misleading. WikiLeaks

Britain mimicking East Germany. This is horrendous

Presumably the same form can be used for 'concerned' neighbours to report suspected Witches? ;)

Where do I report Prince Andrew?
