Is the wind changing?

or is just a sudden breeze that will die down? Maybe caused by global warming.. or cooling or something.

Two articles on the BBC website.

1) A senior detective said people are entitled to challenge bad behaviour. Read here.
2) Home Office minister Meg Hillier said parents, not legislation, had the power to stop underage drinking. Read here.

Now are two people going to be falling on their swords or is this a subtle shift in policy?

I'll keep my eyes open and hope that it's a change from our lords and masters current policy of legislating everything and ensuring that self defence is only for the police against citizens.

The state can only tinker around the edges if the family responsibilities have been reneged and screwed up. Hopefully this will be a little ray of light.

Here in South Australia, we are hiring three ASBO experts to come and tell us how to control all these anti social yoofs wot want to aggro here. The government has some anti social behavious legislation, including impounding cars. They have gone to the UK for the best and the brightest to put it to work. Society breaks down and the White Knight Government is always looking for ways to fix it.
