Government requests for Data

I've just been pointed to an interesting part of Google that shows by country, the number of requests for data by governments.

Have a look at the Google page if you're interested.

Clean sweep

Oh Nose.

Do your bit.

Go over HERE to let the coalition government know which laws you think should be abolished.

The ASA should grow some balls.

I'm sure some people are professionals at finding offence in almost anything these days.

This poster has been banned.

I mean there must have been thousands of complaints.

Oh Noes

However, the ASA received 33 complaints that the ads were unsuitable to be seen by children, were offensive and condoned or encouraged antisocial behaviour.

Weapon of mass destruction

Come on. Own up whoever made this.

About time too.

At last the BBC is being forced into the real world.

The BBC was facing revolt from thousands of staff today after taking an axe to its final-salary pension scheme.

Many staff will be worse off in retirement under the proposals as the corporation looks to counteract a £2 billion deficit in its pension fund.

Especially if it could affect this insufferable Twat.

But then I expect he's safe.

From the comments:

"Preston thinks he is the Queen Mother of broadcasting!"

Police fail

Oooops

 

Make sure you get up to date intelligence in future

I must obey the Righteous.

And I will use the advice printed on the packet below.

Says it all.

Smoking at a crossroads. Deborah Arnott Chief Executive ASH

I'll take her advice. Thanks Debs. You old crone sweety.

Just so you know

This Blog is a smoking zone.

If you're an anti-smoker. Then stop reading now.

The thugs are at it still.

The Message still doesn't seem to be getting through to the plod that:

It is not illegal to take photographs in a public place.

Authoritarian cunts. How can they expect us to abide by the law when they make it up as they go along.

UPDATE:

The usual weasel words.

The Metropolitan police has issued a statement to the British Journal of Photography - a spokeswoman said:

"It is clearly not the intention of the MPS to prevent people from taking photographs, although, as the public would expect, officers will remain vigilant, particularly in crowded public places. Any allegations or complaints about police treatment of photographers are taken very seriously by the MPS."

She adds: "Anyone who is unhappy with the actions of individual police officers can make a formal complaint, which will be thoroughly investigated. Although at this time we have not received a complaint about this incident and no allegations of crime have been made, we will investigate the circumstances. Our officers do receive guidance around the issue of photography through briefings and internal communications and we continue to drive this work forward.
