The Labour Party promised, if they get elected, to stop the gagging order on the press. Well this is certainly a reason for voting Labour. They also nationalise the Railways again as and when the contracts expires.
UPDATE: The non-elected House of Lords, mostly Conservatives, had passed the bill to gagged the press. This is indeed a very sad day in British history to wipe out the Freedom of the press. The only hope now remains that if the Labour Party wins the next year's general election that they would cancel the gagging order and re-establish the Freedom of the Press which includes the Freedom of Speech and re-establish DEMOCRACY.
Congratulation to the three party leaders to bury a 300 year
old freedom of the British press. Surprisingly that Mr Miliband agreed to it. A Labour leader should have objected most of
all since he is the opposition leader of his party. It is amazing the speed the Conservatives
managed to get the bill through when they want it to be done. The situation was the same with the Royal
Mail but the EU Referendum was dragged out until it was too late to be
effective. Brussels must be laughing their heads off.
The real root of the problem which escalated into this scenario
the press was discovering too many dirty deals and fiddles on the top. Even so David Cameron keeps promising, yet again,
and repeatedly proclaims like a conquering hero ‘transparency’ he seems to do
right the opposite. Cutting the freedom of the press proves it that he does not
mean what he said.
The biggest disgrace is the way he and his disciples done
it. He used the Privy Council which does not need to go through Parliament and
had is signed behind closed door. The Privy
Council was set up by Kings at the beginning of the British monarchy to get
their law established without Parliament.
Is the Queen really so powerless
that she can’t object to sign it or was she also in agreement?
The press are doing a great job by revealing dirty deals,
fiddles and recently expenditure fiddles by minister. It is this fact columnists
believe brought the wrath down on the press.
The newspapers also running many campaigns to make this country better
but apparently it is not to the liking of the Coalition. To cut the Freedom of
the Press borders on dictatorship therefore Britain has no right to shout about
democracy and point fingers to countries which have no free press or speech. David Cameron had done now the same.
There was no need for cutting the freedom of the press. There
are many laws against printing wrong articles such as libel cases which many
journalists already had to face over the years. The British Press was respected and the envy
of the world. Again this Government
shuttered that.
David Cameron should not point the finger because when the
phone hacking scandal broke and his friend Mr Coulson was sacked from the newspaper Mr Cameron
employed him as a Communication Secretary. It is incredible to employ a man which was involved
in the phone hacking scandal and put him especially in such a position. Only
when the public put pressure on Cameron and then it took a long time Mr Coulson
was sacked. The judgement David Cameron and his principles are very
questionable. Therefore for him to strut
about and demand to control the Freedom of Press will not only be by the press
but the general public contempt.
David Cameron has 97 spin doctors all paid by the taxpayers but
the results of his actions are anything to be admired. He privatised the Royal Mail another 500 year
old institution and again in high speed even at a low price so the fat cats had
straight away million of pounds in their pockets. The general public were only
allowed to buy shares of around £750 per person while Chancellor George Osborne’s
friend received £50million worth of share and so did the other hedge funds.
Now he destroyed the freedom of the press and also
dismantled the National Health Service by bringing contractors which most of
them created already scandals either by fiddling the data or are impossible to
cope with the workload because the contractors try to run it on a skeleton
staff to increase the profit.
All this is unacceptable to the general public but David
Cameron ploughs on. How this man and his friends can call themselves
British and David Cameron stating he is proud of it is any ones guess? Especially he is the Prime Minister and yet
dismantles Britain bit by bit. All what Britain stood for and admired
throughout the world he destroys which does not show a National pride but greed
and devious dealings.
