To be honest CCTV doesn't really worry us (well, not me at least). Not on buses (for example) which are after all private endeavours!
Street CCTV may be another issue. I mean it doesn't concern me too much (we have a few CCTV cameras on the main street in my town, have done for years, and they have been useful) so long as it doesn't get expanded...
But I'm tentatively hopeful. The ID cards were all but scrapped anyway (we fought very long over than one and luckily the prev government lost) but it is good to see that confirmed. Nick Clegg made a big point the other day of talking about scrapping the "Nanny State". If he really does then that will be extremely popular - it's been the most aggravating thing of the last few years.
They also talked about increasing the number of coppers on the beat; I've said for a long time that should be a #1 policy for any government so it is good to see it talked about properly.
(Incidentally the Lib Dems have really laid into the Digital Economy bill recently - they might win too!)
