Well nanny, you are not wrong, and i tried to find an article i read years ago but to no avail. there are literally 1000"s of cameras in london. One very cynical journalist set out from home to work about a half hour walk and said he was totally unphased by cameras and clocked, much to his chagrin, 200 cameras just in that walk. Some of which pivoted when he got to a cross-roads, to look at him, cos he looked up at them. We now know, that people become depressed by being constantly surveilled and it affects the general health of a population.

I don't know that the evening standard is the best paper but there you are, - to read. Clearly the reason for cameras is not to solve crime, but to glean "behaviors' and to make patterns. my family had a choice recently to move to london or lose our income and i said i would seriously move to Kazakhstan before i would move my family to london. Tis a place gone wrong, filled with people who want to make money and follow the next hype, be it coffee or group sex. its really a city gone crazy from surveillance. Its no where for a family or anyone wanting to continue a fairly good life.
Even in Paris we are no where near where they are in the spy state. But as i mentioned recently, it seems that Uk citizens will put up with anything, because there is this constant and racist hum of good ole britain, queenie and pork pies. it will be the last place to wake up…thats got nothing, however, to do with england, ireland, scotland wales though where plenty of people are eyes wide open.
thanks for the thought on my dream, it was a beautiful sight indeed.
