I'M STILL HERE.
I just get so angry about how much spin Kent and his mob keep putting on things. He may well think we are becoming less vocal, but I just don't see it like that. I think some of us just feel that there is not much more we can do at the moment and are waiting to see what the ISP's and PHORM do next.
Nearly 15,000 people have kindly taken the time to sign the petition I setup on the PM's website, I would submit that there are more people concerned about this issue than Kent gives credit for, but then it does seem to be in his interests to paint us as a vocal and vociferous minority, and I'm sure if he can get away with it, the next stage will be to try and portray us as a 'lunatic fringe'.
This issue is just so important to me that for the first time in my life I feel strongly enough to consider joining the protest on the 16th July. This might not sound like much, but then I'm just an ordinary bloke (Who happens to work in IT and so understands the impact of this), I've never protested in my life. The thoughts of it even scare me a little, but I don't want to be one of those people who sits on the sofa and complains without at least trying to do something. I've booked the time off work and look forward to getting the details on the protest.
