Where the fuck do you get that idea? Because there are more cameras? Because that’s about the only thing more police state than giving every Tom, Dick, and Harry with a badge, a gun, and minimal oversight.
While I agree that the banning of any demonstration in support of Palestine Action is an authoritarian overreach by the UK, I dont think its as bad as masked paramilitary goons dragging people off without explanation and executing them them in broad daylight while members of the government stand up and say that said paramilitary goons have full legal immunity,
The UK has been more of a police state than the US for decades.

That, and the whole Palestine Action thing. You don’t need guns or lack of oversight to be a police state.

which is saying a lot!
Is that actually true? Seems dubious right now.
