The New York Times:
Popular messaging services like Snapchat and WhatsApp are in the cross hairs in Britain.
That was the message delivered on Monday by Prime Minister David Cameron, who said he would pursue banning encrypted messaging services if Britain’s intelligence services were not given access to the communications.
I’m sorry to our British friends but you have an idiot for a Prime Minister.
This is a known fact, already …
This is mild compared to some of ridiculous crap this guy has spouted during his time in office. You’d think a country with crippling austerity measures which are starving and freezing the elderly and the poor would have more focused priorities for its “leaders”
Loathsome.
Idiot is too nice a word. Mostly, we just call him a cunt.
Observing from the outside only, but the British government seems to be full of idiots. Has been for quite some time, too.
Just observe the irony of them marching for freedom of the press (“Je Suis Charlie Hebdo”) when not too long ago, they had their police raid the Guardian’s office.
Terrorists: “Stop being so free!”
UK Prime Minister: “Okay.”
This informative music video tells you all you need to know about the British prime minister:
The Brits, hate, hate, hate it when they can’t spy on you. And it’s no coincidence that London is the most surveilled city on the planet. Compulsive voyeurism is in their genes.
Realistically, we can probably expect the same attempt in Canada and the US some time over the next few years.
I’m not sure if that makes Cameron a bigger idiot, a faster idiot, or just ahead of the idiot curve.
I’d point fingers, but, yeah, Stephen Harper. Just a few more months…
Good luck overcoming the conservative fraud and smear machine.
