EU 'has used September 11 to curb dissent'

Just in case you thought it was only the American people that had to suffer. They're doing it here too! We're in this together people; anyone who doesn't want to end up with a chip in their head or a camera in their lounge has to speak up now! Make your voice heard, phone your MP, write a blog, surf the Internet and tell your mates what you find! If we're not careful those fascists in hippy flowers are going to end up trying to control our lives and we'll have given them the power!

Obey!

The European Union has taken advantage of September 11 to curb dissent in what amounts to a "war on freedom and democracy", according to a report published yesterday.

The civil liberties group Statewatch said the EU was acquiring draconian powers to harry protesters and carry out surveillance of ordinary citizens, but lacked the normal safeguards to prevent their abuse.

It described the EU's secretive and unaccountable system as a democracy "built on sand".

Among the "avalanche" of new measures since September 11 is a new law extending the definition of terrorism to ordinary political protest.

Do you feel like you're living in some Orwellian nightmare? Or perhaps you feel as if you're plugged into The Matrix? Well if so, you've come to the right place. No matter how messed up you thought the world was, by the time you've finished reading some of the things I've found on my travels in Cyberspace you'll realise that 1984 was just a typo!

A note to the non-ravers out there: codshit is NOT a derogatory or insulting term and bears no relation in offensiveness to its four-letter cousin, it's a word used to describe the nonsense that people sometimes talk when they are off their heads. To understand what codshit is watch the film Human Traffic.

Comments are welcome, but before you waste perfectly useful energy abusing me please take a moment to reflect on the basic right we all have to express ourselves!

Please remember that I am not telling you what to think or believe, take everything you read here with a large grain of salt!

Let there be no doubt that the people of the free world are engaged in a war... In the next few years, we are either going to see the people of the free world rise up against these fascists, now setting the stage for global war, or we are going to see the end of democracy as we know it with martial law the end result.
