Hamish? you should know better mate. I thought we were both foil hats ?
Well you need to research more, you got the Global Warming Hoax right.
Nothing personal mate, but you're so bonkers you make me look sane.;) Which I don't mind in the least.:D
The global warming "hoax", probably isn't a hoax..... It's just vastly exagerrated. The earth is warming, and we're probably partly to blame, although nowhere near as much as the greeny crackpots claim.
But it's way too soon, and way too unproven, to be destroying economies over. Which is my only point in that regard.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”

Yep.
Crowd control.
They are giving up on debadged community support officers battering peaceful & lawful demonstrators.
Now they want to set them on fire but without the flames because flames aren't good for the camera.

Whereas the LRAD (long range acoustic device) that I was thinking of earlier, has already been deployed at the G20 protests.On November 7, 2005 LRAD was first used to foil a pirate attack on a Seabourn Cruise Line luxury cruise. The system was installed as a part of the ship's defense systems, and was activated when pirates attacked the ship with RPGs 160 kilometers off the Somali coast . The pirates failed to board the cruiser. LRAD's maritime application was realized after the 2000 attack on the USS Cole off Yemen, as a way to keep operators of small boats from approaching US warships. The system was evaluated by commercial ship operators, as a non lethal way to ward off pirate attacks“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

The trueth is they have been on our streets for decades, nothing new there.. Remember the IRA, special forces, intellengence units and surveilance were all used even here in the uk. They were also used in the july bombings and suspect they are active now. Nothing to be worried about, life as normal.
We could simply deploy the yeomany again to supress riots like in the napoionic wars:exclamatiScams - Shared Equity, Shared Ownership, Newbuy, Firstbuy and Help to Buy.

One Day We’ll All Be Terrorists Chris Hedges
Editor’s note: All manner of ordinary domestic criminal activity is now considered terrorism in Britain and the United States.
This is hardly new news. The laws brought in, ostensibly, to protect us from terrorism are being used against people. The freedoms we have enjoyed are being curtailed and to a degree the terrorists have won. Flying is now a chore, people are harrassed in the streets for taking pictures, councils snoop on parents, the Police steal innocent people's DNA, people fined for feeding the ducks in the park. Bonkers. We are not anywhere near a totalitarian state but we are all treated as suspects now by one of the surliest, small minded, bureaucracies we have ever had."There's no such thing as Macra. Macra do not exist."

CCTV in the sky: police plan to use military-style spy drones
Police in the UK are planning to use unmanned spy drones, controversially deployed in Afghanistan, for the "routine" monitoring of antisocial motorists, protesters, agricultural thieves and fly-tippers, in a significant expansion of covert state surveillance.
Home Office presses ahead with web interception
The government has signalled that it is going ahead with plans to force ISPs to intercept all web communications, despite serious criticisms of the scheme.
The Home Office has amalgamated two teams into a new directorate to work on the scheme, which is called the Interception Modernisation Programme (IMP).
