UK : Eastern MP calls for more rave clampdowns There is already a Government committee looking into this issue (something called the Home Office Research Study group, the committee is usually made up of academics, Civil Servants and senior Police officers)
These days it can take as little as a year or two for their recommendations to be made into a Parliament debate and subsequently a law. - Consider how quickly Ketamine was classified for instance.... Things used to take longer but since 1997 or so Blair has made Government work faster by demanding quicker delivery from the Civil Service..
I suppose its seen by the "other side" as 10-15 years worth of crime that has gone unpunished (despite more legislation!) which has led to this further backlash...

Government considers raves clampdown
CHRIS FISHER, EDP POLITICAL EDITOR
19 July 2007 20:22
The government is to ask a top police study group to look at ways of clamping down on illegal raves in Norfolk and other rural areas.
Home Office minister Vernon Coaker made the commitment in the Commons last night after South West Norfolk MP Christopher Fraser said people would be dissuaded from holding and supporting such gatherings only if the government showed it was serious in its intent and provided an effective deterrent.
Mr Fraser emphasised that illegal raves were being held regularly in his constituency, that they were causing "huge distress, damage and expense", and that current laws seemed unable to stop them.
He suggested the introduction of further legislation to make "organising or being involved in the organisation of" a rave, and attending a rave, criminal offences.
Mr Coaker said the Association of Chief Police Officers had already recognised that raves were "a growing problem", and promised to refer Mr Fraser's proposals for consideration by a sub-group of the organisation that was looking at the issue.

I've done almost any inhalant u can think of. And I really only want to do psychedelics. I've asked around every where and can't get acid anywhere. I've been on the hunt for about a year. I've been thinking about trying to make LSD. So what do you think should be my next step. What should I next experiment with?

'Spy helicopter' used at festival
The festival is the first time the force has used the technology
A remote control "spy helicopter" has been helping police patrol a major music festival.
Staffordshire Police have been using the CCTV drone for the first time at the V Festival site this weekend.
Officers said the remote controlled plane helped capture offenders at the festival site at Weston Park, on the border of Staffordshire and Shropshire.
By Sunday police had arrested 62 people in total at the festival and had cautioned more than 100.
Officers said 32 of those arrested had been found possessing drugs.
The remote control drone was being used particularly in the festival's car park to catch criminals attempting to break into vehicles.
'Caught on camera'
Police said they expected to use the technology at future big events.
Ch Insp Pete Owen said: "We are delighted to be trialling the drone.
"It will work in addition to the CCTV that we will monitor on site throughout the festival.
The festival is expected to attract about 90,000 people
"Our message to criminals is that we will be watching you and you will be arrested if you are caught on camera."
People travelling to the festival on Friday faced traffic delays of hours because of motorway congestion.
Highways Agency officials were forced to close a slip road on the M6 to help ease the traffic problems. The two-day festival has attracted about 90,000 people to the park.

Something’s Very Wrong with this Country! Hi folks,
Everyday all you see and hear is of people being attacked, ppl being stabbed/shot beaten to death etc etc.
An 11 year old boy is shot and killed, A 20 year old woman died after a gang attack! and thats the tip of the iceberg!
The government are useless as are the courts, the police cant do fuckall due to red tape, its getting worse and worse each fucking day!
Does anyone think that one day the 'establishment' can rectify the situation or that in the end it's us, the public who are gonna have to take the law into our own hands and fight back?
What are all your views on this?12
Anti-nuke activist killed by neo-nazis! Check this out and spread the news;
Quote:
In the early morning of 21st July, neo-nazi skinheads launched a vicious and unprovoked attack on an anti-nuclear protest camp in Angarsk, Siberia, Russia. The nazis violently attacked activists in their sleeping bags and tents with iron rods, knives and air pressure guns. 21 year old Ilya Borodaenko from Nachodka suffered a head-fracture during the attack and later died in hospital from his injuries. At least nine others have been reported to be seriously injured, one of which has had both their legs broken. Tents were set on fire and several belongings were stolen.
