C2, this alarming message just in in-tray, from one who ordinarily uses no capital letters ... not a good trend (an understatement ;0)

meanwhile in the UK, where the authorities never tire to adopt a trailblazer role when it comes to establishing police state practices, privacy has been dealt another blow:

Police have seized a potential ¢G1 billion "treasure trove" of cash, drugs and guns in an unprecedented raid on concrete vaults holding 7,000 safety deposit boxes.

telegraph.co.uk

note that the article fails to inform us how much of each of these bad things were found. it might have been a box of viagra (the drugs), a rusty Enfield (the guns) and oodles of very very evil looking cash - they don't say. oh, and it was 'inevitable' that 2 or 3 innocent citizens might have been 'swept up' in the 'disruption' (note the choice of words - it sounds like some sort of force majeure event had occurred), as was actually 'predicted'. they will of course get everything back as soon as they have proved that they are really really innocent. big brother's message is: if you have a safe deposit box, consider yourself a criminal by default.
