Is the UK going through abuse of government power like the US?

Question

The Patriot act

Answer 1

yes, but in some ways it is worse because we dont have the same protections afforded to us as the US do against the possibility of a totalitarian prime-minister whose party have become supine to his/her will.The house of lords can be overruled by the Parliament if they so wish and if the law lords have been installed by that leader they may be beholden to him/her.I believe we need a constitution to outline these limits.

Answer 2

Yes, we in the US is about to see a dramatic change. The Liberals are a bunch of criminals who won throughout the US because of their biased media and their unfair potryal of the Iraq war. The Liberal Media shows all the negatives of Iraq, but none of te positives. Liberal media has headlines like: 2 SOLDIERS DEAD IN IRAQ, but in World War II, our media only showed the positives and that united our country. In World War II, more than 2 soldiers were dying each day, and we won the war. The terrorists see that our Liberal news makes us ununited, and that makes them stronger. If we lose the war, or withdraw, IT IS BECAUSE OF THE LIBERALS.

Answer 3

Our government system doesn't allow the same abuse of powers to happen
