Dispatches: Spinning Terror

                 

With Britain facing the greatest terrorist threat in our history, the nation trusts the government to devise policies to protect the nation. Dispatches reporter Peter Oborne reveals that our trust may be misplaced. He presents the case that the government has reacted to the London bombings by rushing through anti-terror policies motivated by the desire to ward off tabloid criticism, gain electoral advantage and make the government look strong.

Suspect Nation

               
 

Since Tony Blair's New Labour government came to power in 1997, the UK civil liberties landscape has changed dramatically. ASBOs were introduced by Section 1 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 and first used in 1999. The right to remain silent is no longer universal. Our right to privacy, free from interception of communications has been severely curtailed. The ability to travel without surveillance (or those details of our journeys being retained) has disappeared. Indeed, as Henry Porter (the Observer journalist famous for his recent email clash with Tony Blair over the paring down of civil liberties) reveals in this unsettling film, our movements are being watched, and recorded, more than ever before.

A man playing a live mythological rollplaying game trys to explain how an arrow went throuh his friends arm . . . to the police.  apparently this is real and not Reno-911.

Global Dimming

                 

This is a documentary that deals with a climatic phenomenon that has been seriously underestimated and how this should forc us to recognise that global warming is a far greater threath than has previously been assumed. It's from the BBC so it's very good, clear and to the point. A must see for anyone wondering about the state of the Earth.
