lordfarquad··on Independent review of UK national security law warns of overreach
The authorities here (UK resident) are already pushing hard for as much authoritarianism as they can get. They are also increasing prison capacity and the two tier system is a genuine thing with public services collapsing.

Police militarization, drones, army unit investigating private civilians, digital powers widening... I am more scared of the government than I am of local paramilitary forces at this point.

It may be enough to swing my vote towards Irish unity given the topic will be forced within my life time.
