4,289 - the number of new 'crimes' under New Labour

The Daily Mail has an interesting story, looking at the colossal number of new 'crimes' that have been created under New Labour.

It totals 4,289.

Why so many? Same reason they have traffic cameras. Yes, there may even once have been a good intention behind some of them. But they are, in reality, revenue raising gadgets.

We, the people should put all of the political parties on notice that we want them to get out of our lives and get out of our faces - else get out of office.

Such a fate will surely befall Labour, the freedom-haters currently with their hands of control strangling the lifeblood out of anything and everything that was once great about this country.

Not that either of their most likely replacements fill us with any hope, either.

Lock up murderers and bank robbers, if you really must.

But barring that.... how about just leaving us all alone?
