An unlikely ally has emerged in the campaign against ID cards.

The UK Information Commisioner Richard Thomas has criticised the introduction of ID cards saying the UK could "sleepwalk into a surveillance society"

He also cast doubt on the state plans for a population register and a database of every child in the UK.

He cited the experience of the Spanish people under the the fascist Franco as an example of what can happen when the state has too much information on its citizens.

It's already here


eschelon spy system

all your phone calls are tapped

these reports are trying to convince us that
this isn't already happening...
that somehow the idea of a security state and the zillion dollar
terror reliant self-perpetuating industry it supports...
are somehow years away!

i am glad the watchdog have voiced on it though...

A few days after 911 there were reports that remote drone could be flown
but it was only a pipedream...
if you check the pentagons own factsheets on UAV's
you will see that Unmanned drones were flying missions in 1995...

and they were firing Hellfire misslies as of october 2001 in Afghanistan

do you trust the press to convince you Big brother isn't here yet?

Far more than Big Brother

The skies today have been really heavy. Between the thunder clouds
huge amounts of sticking and spreading trails. This feels like an
attack - it permeates the atmosphere - the dunderheads I work with
can feel it
Worldwide the weather is on the offensive
Controlled by you know whom
In my book, global warming is not only about fuel-burning and cows
farting and disposed-of refrigerators and the like
From the early nineties new age (yes I know they're UN/Lucis Trust
Luciferians, but that doesn't negate the import of their
pronouncements - reinforces if anything) said that the factually
observed in the global vibration - in line with sun activity no doubt-
from the longstanding 7 Herz - now buzzing at what -13 Herz and
rising
Now all this vibration exposes things - nobody can keep their secrets
hid - least of all the great world leaders - people are increasingly
seeing what they are about
So the fightback from those in authority begins to try to capture the
natural progress of the world grid, which is trying to rid itself of
the parasitic elements
Through technological means, using the chemtrail plasma, the global
mobile phone/cell tower overload, the HAARP frequencies are
transmitted, causing droughts, floods, plagues, pestilences,
earthquakes, the huge increase in neurological disease and new untreatable (by orthodox means)diseases - you name it you got it - ArmaGideon Unlimted
The greater part of the human population of this planet is unwanted
by those in control
The feeling is, we're starting this summer into the endgame

RESIST ID & CCTV

The surveillance state is rising - BUT IT CAN BE RESISTED!

There are already two national campaigns to stop ID cards, DEFY-ID and I forget the name of the other one.

Actually I think the tactics which are working for animal libbers could also work against the police state.

It's not too hard to sab CCTVs. An active group of a dozen people in an area could create zero-surveillance areas for half the time and impose huge costs on the state for its attacks on our freedom. Bus companies are also good targets, if they lost more money through sabotage by anti-CCTV activists than they lost through theft, "vandalism" etc. they would soon find it no longer "efficient" to let Big Brother on the buses.

We also need to do our own tech research to establish easier ways to jam and disrupt various technologies. It's apparently possible to short out all the RFIDs within a certain radius with certain types of energy for instance. Wait till the stores just run on RFID then let something loose in the supermarket and there'd be chaos.

We must stop it now, before it's too late.
