    Yes, the big issue is that it's not a smear in his mind, his limited command of English combined with his tendency to look for evil in others, means he actually believes this is true.

      I take it your point is, if the story supports your worldview, then there's no burden of proof involved, it HAS to be true, because you WANT it to be ?

        The UK government is about to spend $700 million dollars installing surveillance cameras inside the private homes of citizens to ensure that children go to bed on time, attend school and eat proper meals. No you aren’t reading a passage from George Orwell’s 1984 or Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, this is Britain in 2009, a country which already has more surveillance cameras watching its population than the whole of Europe put together. Now the government is embarking on a scheme called “Family Intervention Projects” which will literally create a nanny state on steroids, with social services goons and private security guards given the authority to make regular “home checks” to ensure parents are raising their children correctly. Telescreens will also be installed so government spies can keep an eye on whether parents are mistreating kids and whether the kids are fulfilling their obligations under a pre-signed contract. Around 2,000 families have been targeted by this program so far and the government wants to snare 20,000 more within the next two years. The tab will be picked up by the taxpayer, with the “interventions” being funded through local council authorities. Another key aspect of the program will see parents deemed “responsible” by the government handed the power to denounce and report bad parents who allow their children to engage in bad behavior. Such families will then be targeted for “interventions”. Both parents and children will also be forced to sign a “behavior contract” with the government known as Home School Agreements before the start of every year, in which the state will dictate obligations that it expects to be met. The opposition Conservative Party, who are clear favorites to win the next British election, commented that the program does not go far enough and is “too little, too late.” Anyone who says something like “I know a lot of people are concerned about Big Brother, but my response to that is, if you are not doing anything wrong, why should you worry about it?” is intellectually bankrupt because you didn’t take into account a corrupt and criminal police force and government. You are also probably mentally ill because it is just plain weird to want to be watched by strangers in your own home. http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/115736[^]

              I've been looking for the proof they say doesn't exist. I won't tolerate them trying to discredit me and call me insane. At the most intensive level, families who require supervision and support on a 24 hour basis stay in a core residential unit. Upon satisfactory completion of a programme, the family can move into a managed property.[^]

                this refers to a managed residential home - more like a open-open prison rather than a true home, you state its putting cameras into homes when the truth is putting the worst parents into monitored homes as opposed to locking them up in a prison - a difference that is huge. what would your answer be? let them lose to mistreat the children? to terrorise other residents? to allow them to ruin the hilds life until enough of a case can be brought o have the child removed? (note that even that is suspect as they can just have another it is that they seem good at) or are you opposed to this as it would be difficult to give the kids porn when being so heavly supervised? and we know that you advocate this

                  The state is stepping in because of child abuse. Which is happening because the stupidest people in society are being allowed to breed. I've never seriously suggested forced birth control, but, you have to admit, the options are: 1 - let the kids suffer, and possibly die 2 - stop these people from breeding 3 - get the state involved to protect the rights of innocent children

                    I am not in the least surprised that the story in question was stretching the truth. However, I can't find any reference to cameras in that pdf. Is there in fact no truth at all to the story ?

                    OK, I type this again, after once being thwarted by the auth. Whatever the Cap'n's maladies, he has raised a valid point. The people of Britain stand a very, frightening risk of this kind of shit being pulled on them. Just ask Holland. This is not a figment, but a story', not imagined by the Cap'n, but actually constructed by deluded leftits the world around.

                      I have made copious searches and can find no supporting references to statements or comments or opinions in any other UK newspaper that Ed Balls was supposed to have made. I have looked at Ed Balls home site, Hansard, UK Home Office press reports, CommunityCare website, TheyWorkForYou.com , Department for Children Schools & Familes. Frankly, I can't find anything that supports what this political journalist (Alison Little) says on the subject. But you can draw your own conclusions ...

                        Well first off the UK government broadly defines anti-social behavior to include just about anything they dictate as inappropriate. Second, the authorities can come in and inspect the home of anyone who is ratted out, but this is normal for the UK. Even back in the 1700s King George III enforced the Stamp Act on the American colonies which required every piece of paper, pamphlet, poster, ANY PIECE OF PAPER REGARDLESS OF WHAT IT IS USED FOR, be stamped with the king's stamp. How did they enforce this? The king gave the right to authorities to write their own search warrants to inspect people's homes, which is what they are doing now but all they need is someone's word that a family is anti-social. If someone is truly abusive or neglecting his or her children, then they should go to jail for a while and the children can live with other family or a willing adopter family or a temporary intervention family.

                        I never advocated giving kids porn. I said I was against state sex-ed because they do show inappropriate material to young kids. My little brother when he was 10 or 11 told me that the school was showing a video of a man ejaculating. I don't think that is necessary for such a young mind. I'd like you to quote me saying I advocate giving porn to kids. You can't because I didn't.

                          Where did the news article say anything about child abuse? It said it's main focus was making sure that kids go to bed on time and do their homework. It also said that the parents that are in good status with the government will be given new rights to complain about others that might not be in good standing with the person that is complaining to the government, and therefor the person who was ratted out would be subjected to government spying in their home. This sets the precedent for a massive expansion of the program, which I'm sure will become acceptable in the UK because they will tolerate anything except freedom. How do we know that you don't abuse your children? You seem to be a little off in your morals. You have stated that child molestation is OK as long as it is mainstream and is acceptable by the majority, and you clearly believe that people should be sterilized at birth and have camera in their homes to watch and listen to their every action. Perhaps you need one of those cameras.

                          Where did the article say anything about stupid people? Some of the smartest people in the world are psychopaths. Just look at the people in our government. They clearly don't care about anything except money and power, and those are the people that you want to allow to control, monitor, and inventory every aspect of people's lives.

                          That is an intellectually bankrupt statement. If someone is really abusing a child, why isn't that person in jail and the child allowed to be raised by another family member or something?

                            They are mostly part of the city that they police. However they are constantly being federalized along with the states.

                              As Richard said, the story was written by someone with a tenuous grasp on the truth. Cameras will be installed in homes, if at all, because they are percieved as needed for child safety.

                              Well, because I have a job and pay taxes, I don't have any contact with welfare groups. Which means that the first line of defence is the schools. So long as the schools see well adjusted, confident kids who are obviously fed, clothed and not beaten, it will be assumed that I do not abuse them, but the truth is, you can't be certain.

                              Funny. This is the first time cameras have been discussed, and I did not say I wanted them. I've also never said people should be sterilized at birth . What you're doing to me is what you do to all news sources. Take what someone actually says, and twist it to fit your world view. That you do it to someone able to defend themselves here, only makes it more clear to others what a retard you are.

                              I guess you have no grasp on reality. The people who are having kids, and failing to care for them, are overwhelmingly people on welfare who have kids so they can leave home and get their own welfare payment, instead of living off their mothers payments. You believe people are being chosen at random and having cameras installed in their homes ?

                              My recent sentiment includes this assertion. People in the UK are not less deserving of republican liberty than you in Australia, or those in the USA.

                                Did I say they wasn't? Everything is for the children right? They will get people to go along with anything if they say its for the children. What you will have though, is a bunch of pedophiles watching your children eat, sleep, run around, and they will watch the parents do whatever they do in their homes. Oh, and learn how to spell.

                                You sit at your computer all day, and as of now you have little work to do. Having a job and paying taxes has absolutely no significance in determining who abuses their children. Quite frankly I think you do abuse your children. I think you need checked by the authorities.

                                You didn't say you wanted them, but your defending the UK government by stating why they say its necessary for them to install cameras in people's homes to monitor "bad behavior".

You believe people are being chosen at random and having cameras installed in their homes ?

                                The UK is a socialist nation, everybody is on welfare in one form or another, and everyone is being made into a "bad person" through law. Its how they control them.

                                  I've been looking for the proof they say doesn't exist. I won't tolerate them trying to discredit me and call me insane. At the most intensive level, families who require supervision and support on a 24 hour basis stay in a core residential unit. Upon satisfactory completion of a programme, the family can move into a managed property.[^]

                                  Still you find no support in the journalists statement of [quote] The Children’s Secretary set out £400million plans to put 20,000 problem families under 24-hour CCTV super-vision in their own homes. They will be monitored to ensure that children attend school, go to bed on time and eat proper meals. [/quote] And no mentions whatsoever of this being done in "the home". IN FACT, you should read all the pages relevant here http://www.yjb.gov.uk/en-gb/yjs/SentencesOrdersandAgreements/IntensiveSupervisionAndSurveillanceProgramme/[^] then when you have done that, finding EXACTLY what is meant by "surveillance" then read this Management Guidance issued by the Youth Justice Board http://www.yjb.gov.uk/Publications/Resources/Downloads/ISSP%20Management%20Guidance%20Updated%200808.pdf[^]. Then you might be better informed than that political journalist.

To tell deliberate lies while genuinely believing in them, to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just so long as it is needed, to deny the existence of objective reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one denies.

Its not my country and if they want to be spied on in their homes or out in the streets then let them do it. I think its disgusting though.

                                    Well they already have millions of cameras all over cities and towns so it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

                                      That is why solitary is so bad, compared to sharing a cell with Bubba. No reaffirmation. No consensus.
