Going going gone

 The Online Safety Bill is making it's way through Parliament. The last two years has seen free speech suffocated in many areas. The Online Safety Bill will make that far worse. The Bill will require social media companies to remove content. They are already doing that now. Another one bites the dust. One down, a million more to go. 

A legal analysis has been compiled, a document setting out all aspects of this Bill. If you are interested you can read it here. 
If this goes through it will have far reaching consequences. Controlling what comes out of people's mouths, whether verbally or the written word, is the start of the move from democracy to a totalitarian regime. Ask yourself, is that what you want. Are you happy not being able to question anything? Are you happy to go along with whatever is asked of you, even though you know it is morally wrong? Would you rather I go away and shut the fuck up? 
I will leave you with that thought. Time for breakfast. Toodle pip.   ilona
