Doesn't it remind us of George Orwell's classic book Animal Farm?
It happened in Russia, and it could happen here. The "all powerful state". People are already talking about the "nanny state", but it will get worse if we don't put a stop to it.
The only political party entirely committed to stopping it is UKIP.
People are angry at what is going on. This is not democracy - we ought to be given our say in a referendum - after all, we were promised it.
