Yep. It is honestly tiresome. It is the same bad arguments are repeated ad-nauseam. The UK government and various public entities have been repeatedly shown to abuse the powers given to them.

It doesn't matter if you show all the times it was abused, or someone life has been ruined for because they drunkely said something stupid on facebook, it is just ignored or if it later gets overturned that it is no big deal even though they had to spent months or years dealing with the legal system.

I have spoken to a lot of young people (typically men) in their 20s that just want to leave the country because they can see where this is all going.

Anyway my top comment has been made dead. I hate this site.
