Oh dear. Just as the Conservatives takes two steps forward by promising to give ZaNuLiebour's Orwellian nightmare a kick in the kahoonies, they have to go and take another two steps back - if a report in The Times is true.
It reports that there might be a plan for National Health medical records to be passed to Google or Microsoft in the event of a Conservative election victory.
So, should we believe that this is something sinister or do we believe that this is just the somewhat scary Big Brother nation trying to look after us?
Really, need you ask what we think? Still, they could give us microchip implants at the same time as snaffling our medical records - it would at least be a one-stop shop and save time, we guess.
Can't wait to see what David Icke has to say on the matter...
At least the public aren't the only folk having to suffer. According to The Independent, the Met Police are to issue their officers with a personal GPS tracking device, so their bosses will know where officers are at every single moment. Except when a member of the public gets clobbered, obviously, as the things will conveniently not be working then.
The Guardian has a new development in the latter context.
And we shouldn't laugh too much. You know that we'll all have to wear them eventually... unless we vote someone with some common sense into power - which given the choices...
