Absolutely, that is the clear line in the sand where government lurches from consensual democracy to military dictatorship. Where Boris Johnson changes from ‘libertarian’ buffoon, to malevolent statist danger against the citizens of a supposedly free country.
It is a completely different situation to March and April when the army was used for positive things like delivering PPE and building Nightingale hospitals. Now this jackass wants to use the army to threaten us into compliance. This only makes me more determined to get that clown out of office. Unlike the lefty so-called opposition parties who objected to mild Brexit shenanigans last year, calling him a wannabe dictator, but are perfectly fine with him behaving like an actual dictator this year!
What are we going to do about it ? . We can not just simply watch every new step towards a fascist state behind our keyboard. What is the difference between us and the zombies ? what is knowledge if we do not put it into prectice ? .
There is a big difference between us and the zombies, we are in our own small way standing firm against tyranny. In years to come the historians will say a minority of the population were resisting the madness and defending western values. All we can do is carry on what we have been doing : go to protests, write to the local MP, and participate in as many opinion polls as possible. Keep getting the message out that these decisions are totally unacceptable and that the damage done will be permanent. Make sure Boris knows that he will NEVER get these votes back no matter what he does.
Thats not going to cut it when the bullets are coming towards us. Why is everyone so scared of saying that we meet violence with violence. Ye Gods parliament itself was formed from violence. Whilst we all sit and discuss things, the army are planning how they enforce their will on unarmed people. Have we not learned that appeasement never works. It didnt work to stop ww2, it didnt work for the jews, it does not work. We must fight back. Thats the only way
Boris don't need our votes anymore as election is over. Even if there was one in the future it will be fixed. We are under a fascist state. MPs care as little as medical staff. This is clearly a war against all of us. We, the minority, are resisting and defending western values under a keyboard, because we do not want to do any further than that. Because we prefer to end up brain dead and cripple through out the vaccine and loose our freedom that fight the war. Because unlike our ancestors we are cowers.
@Maria Hannah I agree but there comes a time when simple protests are no longer effective. The protests in Traf Square are ok for morale building but not much more. The protesters are penned in the square, totally controlled and present no real problem to the government. They are not worried about that at all, which does nothing to progress the fight. If we were marching through the streets, Whitehall, Parliament square etc, distributing leaflets etc, they would have to provide extra resources to cover the marches, extra resources costs money. They dont like spending money on such things, they would then be forced to take notice. Right now, they really dont care if we protest every day in Traf square, it is easy to control and does not really affect anything or anyone and the police get a bit of overtime into the bargain. We need to be on the move, not static. That gives them real logistic problems.
I totally agree, we need to be on the streets, highly visible and audible. At the top of Trafalgar Square or behind the hedges of Hyde Park the uniformed thugs act with total impunity. They won't do that in front of the wider public. Or if they do, then we are a lot closer to fascism than we think.
That was exactly the apathetic jingoism that enabled germany to become a military dictatorship, that and US funding from prescott bush....
If a soldier signs up and then proceeds to carry out human rights abuses against their own civillians they deserve the punishment for treason, which happens to be death.....
Why should we be grateful for the existence of the war machine that does nothing but commit war crimes in our names?
Did they ever find those Iraqi WMD's, i think i found one down the back of my couch!
Libya, Afghanistan, Syria too, tax payer funded terrorism is rife around the world, all illegal i might add.
the state shows it has nothing but contempt for the law and our rights say we can fight back.

Aren't our troops "human" as well? They deserve our support no matter what duties are give to them. We should be grateful that they are there!
