Democracy is not in fashion....

Totalitarian or dictatorship is. I've just read a rather disturbing article about how the British Government are threatening to shut down the Guardian newspaper over the Snowden leaks. If this doesn't tell about where you stand in the scheme of things I don't know what will. Britain is silencing our methods of getting any valued information.

What did Edward Snowden really tell us? He told us that we are being spied on constantly and even when we believe our data is secure, they're not! He basically told us where we are in the food chain; and that basically rock bottom if our own Government is restricting our movement by constantly keeping tabs on us.

This has just confirmed my beliefs; this is not a democratic country, how can it be when journalist are being threatened, whistle-blowers are being criminalized and we are constantly being kept in the dark. How can this be a democracy when we aren't allowed to have all the facts?
