WHEREAS it is known that, especially the United States and Great Britain, are slowly building totalitarian surveillance society; and,
WHEREAS we also realise that the British Schedule 7 acts to diminish freedom of speech and journalists' activities in the Commonwealth; and,
WHEREAS the European yes-politicians are meek in face of the United States due to self-interest; and,
WHEREAS it is also known that the privacy of correspondence, post and telecommunications laws of Germany have been deliberately tweaked in order to allow the United States an easier access thereunto; now,
THEREFORE the Ziu, and verily, the whole nation of Talossa, in face of their powerlessness, fiercely condemn these states and the European Parliament for their perjury to avert damages from the people they represent.
We are aghast that these politicians should be furthering contracts as "Safe Harbour", "TTIP" and the like to circumvent privacy protection guidelines and laws of the European Union, and that they should acquiesce to the surrender of privacy and freedom of speech out of cowardice and accommodativeness.
FURTHERMORE the nation expresses its spiritual succour to the Whistleblower Edward Snowden who is "trapped" in Russia, to Wikileaks Founder Julian Assange who is confined in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, to journalist David Miranda who was forced to cooperate with the police at the Londoner Airport, without the right to a counsel or the right to remain silent for nine hours under Schedule 7, and all the other journalists that cannot return to Great Britain due to Schedule 7, a tool to deprive the British people of their Constitutional Rights disguised as an anti-terror statute.
MOREOVER the nation asks the Ziu and the Senate to consider giving to Edward Snowden the Senatorial Medal of Honour, for his outstanding service to humanity and for his courage to step forward and peril his life for his cause.
