by Sunny Hundal    

David Davis published his manifesto to protect “Britain’s fundamental freedoms”, on his site. Seems to have backed off from his opposition to CCTV a bit…

1. Jennie Rigg

Lots of that looks very nebulous, and some of the bits that aren’t appear to be pretty illiberal. Glad that he wants to repeal SOCPA, but he’s got fuck all chance of actually doing it…

What’s the Green Lady’s manicfesto look like?

2. ukliberty

Which of those ten policies are illiberal?

3. Antireptilian

The Manifesto is weak. Such a great fuss about resignation and challenge to the coming police state, and the best he can suggest is Socpa and getting rid of a few cameras.

There needs to be some real meat behind this manifesto.
