'Real Time' use of the congestion charge cameras was supposed to be about fighting terrorism...however, papers released by mistake show that police will be able to access the cameras for any reason...of course by 'police' that will actually include civilians within the system!
And the reason we weren't supposed to know?...because the government had dismissed the charge that they were wanting to set up a vehicle tracking scheme, and yet this is exactly what is happening bit by bit!
Sure, road pricing will raise money, but the real gem is the surveillance system!

No mention of public debate as usual...what was that about listening?..
Of course 'third parties' wil eventually mean all cctv....despite protestations to the contrary, when a country and it's population comes under routine police surveillance, then a police state is already well on the way!
