While the people of the United Kingdom are understandably chowing down on popcorn and watching the implosion of the Prime Minister and his failing government, the Prime Minister and his failing government just received the green light, to do the same to the people of the United Kingdom.

Facial recognition is set to be ‘rolled out’ across the entire country, after a human rights challenge was thrown out by the courts. 

Well, of course it was. 

The establishment want facial recognition, and the courts are merely an extension of the establishment. 

It’s a stitch up, and you’ll see just how much this is true, once jury trials in the UK are dispensed with. 

Then there will be no checks and balances as the state appointed judge will rule on behalf of the state at every opportunity. 

Do you remember the Bart Simpson meme, where the kids are goading him? 

“Say the line!”, they order, alluding to the fact that the line is wholly predictable, and then Bart says it, and they all cheer? 

You know what I’m talking about?

Well, that’s basically how I read news articles these days. 

So as soon as I saw that facial recognition had been given the go ahead, I scrolled the article for the predictable Bart Simpson line. 

It only took a paragraph for it to appear, and it came courtesy of Policing Minister Sarah Jones. 

You ready?

“Law-abiding citizens have nothing to fear.”

Yes! Predictability bingo champion once again. What do I win? A facial recognition camera?

Nothing? OK. 

The problem with the claim that “Law-abiding citizens have nothing to fear.”, is quite a significant one given that it simply isn’t true.

This whole legal challenge came about because people are being misidentified by the technology, and arrested for crimes they didn’t commit, so you can be law abiding and still fall foul of Big Brother, 

And also, what does “law abiding citizen” really mean?

Laws change, and the interpretation of law changes with the swish of a pen, and so what was law abiding today, might not be law abiding tomorrow. 

Imagine telling someone in the 1980s that women would soon have penises, and you’d be a bigot if you didn’t agree with that statement? Things change. 

What if a law is unjust? Is it not our duty to then ignore it? 

Didn’t Martin Luther King say that “one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws”?

You’ll find the woke elements of the establishment love quoting the likes of Dr King, but will conveniently avoid that particular statement. 

Doesn’t fit, you see. 

Of course, he’s right. We do have a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. Just because something is legal doesn’t make it right, and just because something is illegal, doesn’t make it wrong either. 

Speaking your mind can land you in prison in the UK these days, and that is quite clearly an example of what happens when you simply allow authoritarian snowflakes to run the asylum. 

But of course, as intrusive and Orwellian as live facial recognition is, and as much as a wrongful arrest can be traumatic, and a kick in the face of your civil liberties, it isn’t the real reason live facial recognition is being rolled out across the country. 

Just like air pollution and money making wasn’t the real reason why ultra low emission zone cameras have been rolled out all over the UK. 

Sure, the extra money is always welcomed by the parasite class, but that is just an added little bonus. 

These cameras are really about building the smart control grid to lock us all in our 15 minute cities, into our social credit systems, and our digital ID, programmable digital money, universal basic poverty, dystopia. 

If they want to control where everyone goes, where everyone drives, if they drive, where everyone spends their money, what they spend their money on, if their money even works, what they say online, whether you can access online, and every other aspect of their new normal, then they need the infrastructure to enforce it. 

That’s the real reason for these cameras. 

They have a significant part to play in the “You will have no privacy, you will own nothing, and you will be happy” future vision of the crazies at the World Economic Forum in Davos. 

And lets not forget, our Prime Minister, just like your leader, wherever you are, openly looks to Davos, and for once in his life, Kier Starmer hasn’t even bothered lying about it.
