    Dark. I wish the people of the UK would step up. Do what they have to do to stop this nonsense. The apathy needs to end.

      The amount of CCTV in the UK even 15 years ago was uncanny and creepy AF

      Everywhere I went, there were camera’s EVERYWHERE.

      That ship has sailed a long time ago… UK citizens are used to having camera’s on them at all times already.

      Most people I’ve asked about this in the UK just say they have nothing to hide so what’s the issue. They’re so used to liberties being taken away they just don’t care. The next election will still be closer than it has any right to be.
