The government is currently trying to push the boundaries and is waiting to see what happens.

Here's what is happening and what the Govt response will be in the near future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFSuxQhURuU

This is being disputed by the government, AFAIK.

It seems the government wants to move forward till the country actually looks like it does in “V for Vendetta”

You had a radical change of government recently, so I guess it's a matter of time to see if people like it or not.

Because the government is still actively pushing them.

Guessing the gov is trying to get people on their side?

Good luck with that. /s


Perhaps, they are stalling until political leadership can suggest an angle to take on the events.

I assume they are constructive and have a different proposal on how to manage the southern border of the country?

I'm not sure, but the fact that they want to 'do something' indicates a reaction to the status quo.

In the UK, we have a sort of passive acceptance of high levels of surveillance of the home population going back to the Northern Ireland Emergency starting 1968. It will need a lot to move the politicians away from that.

As for goverment intentions, I have no direct link, but those who simply ignored their demands were blocked. We wait and see what happens.


Note that according to the press conference they want to start investigating the possibility of it.

The previous government had basically said the same thing. Neither will actually built anything in the near future.


Ah. But that is expecting action from a reigning government that has proven itself unable to do literally anything forward-thinking. It’s regression all over.

It's a bit stretching to take precedence from a foreign nation with different politics and different government structure.

It's only a holdup if the government wants it to be a holdup.

The govt has been tackling entities that do not conform with their views. Conformance is their objective.

I’m aware that the government’s own legal team cited against that move, so they sought external legal advice and pushed through. It’s all very strange, and I’m surprised the courts haven’t been involved yet.

It’s looking like a couple of rough months ahead, the new security law will take into effect, most likely the national anthem law will go through as well.

At best the elections in September give a majority to the pan-dems.


Reconciling themselves to the inevitable, perhaps? That is too much to expect from any government, however.

I think the idea with this is so that they will have the means to move once they have political, financial and ideological clout. They're aiming to incubate a proto-state within an existing state, so as not to rock the boat too much (cough) while building capacity.

They are essentially saying, both governments need a lot of work.
