Hey guys, i am writing a story about what would happen if the UK became a dictatoral police country, i am just gonna tell you a short version of the story

Originally written on /b/ but thread 404ed before i could finish, at least here, the thread lasts longer

Anyways, tell me what you think of the story, especially britanons and what i should change in the story
>near future
>UK was once a demorcatic country
>but slowly, the government was starting to get more powerful
>there are more police on the streets
>security starts getting more tighter
>everyone starts getting less freedom
>people starts realising this but they ignore this
>the turning point is when a group of college students are protesting aganist a new law in Talfargar Square that gives the government power over the internet
>police responds by firing on the students, killing several of them
>the event became known as the Talfargar Square Massacre
>it was at this point everyone knew that the government is in control

It looks like an interesting story, the "it's similar to what's happening in real life" factor helps in the story's immersion. Just try to work more on the political expplanation to the events so it doesn't look like made up bullshit.
Take a look at this game, despite North Korea looking like a small threat now, they give a nice explanation on how it managed to build up military power and invade america, without making it look like made up stuff.

Yeah, one of the best things about our system is that they have all of these laws which should make us a Soviet tier police state, but they can't enforce them because their budget is so small.

Why would the police kill them? More realistically they'd have already infiltrated the group and tried breaking them up from the inside. Otherwise they would no doubt scoop them up nice and quietly.

This is bullshit.

In the Nordic countries anyone 18+ can spend one weekend to get a permanent gun license that is valid for rifles, semi-automatic rifles and shotguns, and a renewable license for hand-guns.

Did Jamal whisper that into your ear last night?

Porn is legal unless its child pornography, voyuerism or zoophilia.

>Piracy: enforced and you get letters from your ISP, abuse reports and the like.

Piracy is in fact decriminalised and Im pretty sure theres not a single ISP that sends out letters. Im not sure how you can fail so badly as you are.

>Integrity: none. All ISPs mandated to keep logs of your every activity for prolonged periods of time.

For a month, which is the same as most other countries.

That one's a defacement, the real ones are slightly (just slightly) less obvious.
>>
what no one here realises is that these 1984-esque posters and what-have-you hide a gradual decrease in the ability of the police to enforce laws due to decreasing manpower etc.

if it was evident that there were plenty of police to watch you, why would they need to tell you that they are? why spend the money putting up posters when the site oif a nearby police officer or piece of police infrastructure will tell you the same thing.

in reality, you're much more likely to get away with minor shit, and even some serious shit, because the ever dwindling police resources are limited and allocated to whatever flavour-of-the-month priority the (frequently elected) police commissioner or chief constable says.

town CBD's are heavily policed, as are tourist areas, but good luck getting a cop in under an hour if you live in a shitty council estate. that's why people there resort to mob violence or having a local gangster get his toughs to visit the offending party.
