@clarinette@mastodon.online @MissConstrue@mefi.social @the5thColumnist@mstdn.ca @cstross@wandering.shop Not going to throw stones, for the UK lives in a glasshouse, long in the building. When Adam Smith wrote his books, Theory of Moral Sentiments & Wealth of Nations, he wrote with one eye over his shoulder for fear that his writings & teaching would be labelled seditious and he’d find himself in jail.

@MelvilleSpence@phpc.social @MissConstrue@mefi.social @the5thColumnist@mstdn.ca @cstross@wandering.shop oh yes, UK is in a dangerous sleepers slope with invasive CCTV cameras all over public places - reporting to China - and government collecting excessive amount of data. Residents being asked to keep photo of their head by their door or access to bank accounts by DWP is outrageous.
