I lurked for a while in Minearverse because Tim was providing
Wonderfalls
updates, but I registered specifically to thank Kiba Rika for uploading the "I Wonder Why the Wonderfalls" music video before (or after) the official site went down. I hadn't really intended to stick around, I don't think, but it just kind of happened.
Also: 1290.
WHO IS NUMBER 6?
I am, actually.
Only on b.org would you actually get a response to that question.
Dana: Could it be that you are in fact also Number 1?
(Okay, if you never watched The Prisoner, I now sound insane.)
I have a high number, and I don't know why, As you all know, I have been here since TT, and I am way wicked gabby.
I have watched The Prisoner. Like I'd tell you if I was Number 1. Maybe you should ask Number 2.

Did you create a new account on one of your name changes, or am I making that up?

Oh, like he'd tell me. I'm #423, they don't tell us 400 series
anything.
P-C just told me to come back and explain the Prime Minister thing, so;
There's a law in the UK Labour bought in called the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act, and part of it said you couldn't protest near Parliament in the UK. It basically meant if you had a problem with a UK law, you couldn't actually go and tell people making the laws without contacting the police and going through a long process to get permission to do a lone demonstration.
Which, bad.
So we found out about 18 months ago our Prime Minister did a little event in Parliament Square which they judged as a political event, but they failed to clear it with the police. And it was a mass gathering with media. Which is a clear breach by the Prime Minister of his own law.
So we tried to get him arrested/questioned/whatever over it. We tried everything. We did a recreation of his Parliament Square event and got police permission to do it, and got them on record that it would be a criminal offense not to have permission. We told the police. We told everybody. And, you know, 'cos it's the Prime Minister nobody cared he broke the law.
So nothing happened in the end. At the moment we're in the middle of a private prosecution which will force him to court to talk about it.
It's a small issue some might say, but it's a law THEY PUSHED THROUGH to stop people having political events around their office. And they broke it. So, that's that.
I'm guessing it wasn't Thatcher then.
