You should be grateful that the government haven't started gassing us
in chemical experiments yet. At least when Big Brother finally gets it
all sorted out they'll be able to catch people like you before you
even get to sign the petition.

Our government needs the money from somewhere, because we need it so
that we can have subsidised bus routes, public transport, and a safe
nanny state.

So, what's the point of filling in a petition, this government
wouldn't listen if there was a civil war raging outside, or even in,
the houses of parliament ? Sure it makes one feel better, but does it
help with Tony and his fascist morons really ?

Maybe they're just figuring out who they need to silence before they
push the bill through ?
