I've decided to take my writing more seriously. As such, I have just entered the Brick Lane Bookshop short story competition, which means, in about two months' time, I can put 'award-losing author' in my biography.

If this government *really* wants to make the court system really 'efficient' they shouldn't just get rid of trial by jury, they should get rid of trials. No more trials, just verdicts. Calm. Forensic. Human rights lawyer. Press send.

By the time this would be over, there would be no schools, no hospitals, no functioning roads, no railway network, no street lights and shit would come out of the *taps* but also, it wouldn't be over. You would pay more in tax, because *someone's* got to pay for the death camps.

Who's up for a wide ranging campaign against Digital ID cards that captures the majority of public opinion against this insane power grab and then the government just shrugs and says: "We're going to do it anyway. LOL."

This was basically known *at the time*. Money was laundered in thinktanks for the purpose or destabilising the party of opposition. A functioning democracy would act swiftly and decisively against things like this. We don't live in one of those. Instead this is saved for Retrospective Noticing.

Both the state and capital are mobilised to ensure your weltanschauung prevails constantly, even when your preferred party is not in office but... you are sad and angry because you get *any friction* from strangers online. What a way to live.
