Citizens' Lists: Let's Put THEM on OUR Databases

Why Damian Green's daughter will now appear on a police database (c/o ARCH). Yes, another database.

Raedwald draws up a list of heads to roll. It's a damn short list but we've got to start somewhere.

I know the Tories will be no angels in office (I experienced the Occupation under Thatcher) but I can only hope they will be nothing as bad as Labour.

Hence, I think we should start drawing up Citizens' Lists - lists of those Labour MPs, civil servants, police commissioners, media cronies, etc, who are most guilty of crimes against the citizenry and our democracy, and make them public. Hell, we could even set up a database or two - or lots of them!

Contained in each entry would be details of their crimes and misdemeanours, eg voting strongly for such things as ID cards, the Iraq War, etc, and against a transparent parliament, etc. Luckily, this kind of information is still freely available on sites such as TheyWorkForYou.

I'm sure there are ways round/complying with the Data Protection Act on this one: even if it means handwriting the damn things.

They might not like it up 'em.
