British government plans to spend 400 million pounds to spy on problem families

Story from the Daily Express via Canadian blog Dust My Broom. (H/T ECM)

Excerpt:

They will be monitored to ensure that children attend school, go to bed on time and eat proper meals.

Private security guards will also be sent round to carry out home checks, while parents will be given help to combat drug and alcohol addiction.

Around 2,000 families have gone through these Family Intervention Projects so far.

But ministers want to target 20,000 more in the next two years, with each costing between £5,000 and £20,000 – a potential total bill of £400million.

Let’s see. The government of Britain embraced secularism, feminism and marxism by electing the left-wing Labor party continuously for over a decade.

  • Secularism destroys objective moral values and duties
  • Feminism destroys marriage and parenting
  • Marxism destroys prosperity and responsibility

How did it help children to undermine morality, marriage and prosperity? How does it help the most vulnerable people in society to debunk all of the institutions that are needed to protect and nurture them?

Government of Canada moves to monitor Internet users

Story from the Western Standard.

Excerpt:

In the spring, the Government of Canada introduced two pieces of legislation that would greatly expand the power of the state to monitor its citizens online activity. The legislation, known as the Investigative Powers for the 21st Century (IP21C) Act, would force Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to install costly surveillance systems on their networks and give police wide ranging new powers that do away with judicial oversight.

…First, ISPs will be required to install costly surveillance equipment on their networks. …Second, the legislation would require that all ISPs give personal information to the government, including the names of their customers, as well as their IP, e-mail, and mailing addresses—on demand and without any judicial oversight.

Police will also gain expanded powers under this legislation. First, they will be able to obtain information about Internet-based messaging, including tracking what sites people are visiting and who they are communicating with. This information will be subject to a judicial order. Second, police will be able to order ISPs to preserve data on their customers. Third, police will be able to obtain a warrant to remotely activate tracking devices in technologies such as cellular telephones.

Surprising, because the Conservatives are in power in Canada.
