It's probably a good point to add that Lord Voldemort is 'Minister for everything' and was not elected, nor does he answer to anyone in the House of Commons (other than Gordon Brown, obviously).
There is not a politician on this planet who does not want tougher penalties for something - plus they all seem to have a list of things they want banning.
It would be a refreshing change to come across one who was against making new things illegal and who did not think it a good idea to criminalise great swathes of the population.
Just dreaming of course...

I think what you're seeing right now is really just the beginning. As things around copyright (on which many a fortune was built) will get more out of control the spasms of this group will get stronger and stronger until there will be a popular movement to counter it.
This is just a reaction to the 'pirate' political party.
I wonder how long it will be before there will be an American equivalent to the Pirate party.
That will create a real disturbance in the force.

Are you, or have you ever been, a member of the Pirate Party?
I think a lot of people would agree that what he really wants is a large custard pie in the face.
But how can ISPs enforce this? Dream on!
This political position was bought and paid for, and not by the voting public.
