Truth, Justice and the "Listening Government"

Folks,

This is going to be a bit of a rambling post and will, almost certainly, be amended a number of times during the day.

First, hat-tip to Chicken Yogurt, read this and, if you think it appropriate (please), sign this.

I had been working on a post entitled "Why do they pretend to listen", about the RIPA Part III Code of Practice, since 25th Feb, but was distracted both by TerryWatch and by real work. I am fascinated by a government that spends so much time and effort on focus groups, polling (rewarded with a peerage, probably without cash changing hands :) and gimmicks, and never, ever listens to anything anybody says.
