UK Civil Liberties

UK Civil liberties can't be taken for granted, they are constantly under threat. Every generation has to fight to keep the ones it has or lose them. Our freedoms take decades to win yet can disappear in a few months. It is the nature of governments of all colours to want to extend their power at the expense of the individual.

We're in a war - and we're losing.

The biggest current threat to UK civil liberties comes from the government's plans to introduce compulsory National Identity Cards for innocent British citizens. ID Cards turn citizens into suspects and deprive people of privacy. They must be resisted.

This page contains links to some of my writings on the subjects and links to some other sites of interest.
