This is why I could never live or do business in the UK. The people and their government are primitive and don’t understand what freedom means. If you study parliament it quickly becomes clear that the UK operates under a dictatorship and the license of democracy it claims for it’s citizens is fraudulent. Witch hunts over tweets and attacks on common cryptography only prove that further. We need to start correcting UK citizens when they claim to be free and remind them the ‘special exceptions’ they allowed their government to include totally and obviously undermine and break their freedom.

And this man. Like the rest of his generation he was out with a machine gun in the fields. He’s beyond criticism? Because he’s old? Because he walked in his garden for charity? Because he was on the English side and all English soldiers get a pass, wink wink? He probably blew 30 young soldiers brains out on tour.
