HMRC can do the most unrestricted spy on the British population, and there is a lot of data sharing between all the different parts of the state, ie HMRC, Police, NHS etc etc.

Any employee of the state can spy on you and the press also do a fair bit of spying on the population.

Its a national past time when thinking of curtain twitchers and neighbourhood watch schemes.

come on mate, get your head straight.

You really dont have a clue do you! Every part of the state you interact with takes notes, and the security services have access to it when they want it, bent judges do exist you know, and then they via Special Branch direct the Police.

When is an anonymous tip off by the public, just a cover for the state. They cant do it to everyone as the game would be up, but there is much more surveillance than you realise.

Alot of my relatives worked for the state, and as a kid I over heard alot!
