...remember that the current government is a coalition so the main party who most if not all of these ministers belong to were voted for by less than 25% on the voting population
It seems that the less of a mandate a government has the more and more radically they change things
The commonly used filter in the UK already blocks sites as Porn that have nothing whatsoever to do with it
Corporations should not have copyright
Similar to Patents it should be from N years of first publication (not creation) in *any* medium (no different copyright for new medium), but they have limited rights before that
This gives the creator control, and rights from when they can reasonably start to reap the rewards
How could it reach the Supreme Court when no-one knew about it
It depends what you mean by guaranteed civil rights
Your constitution guarantees freedom of speech (which ours does not explicitly) but you have more legislation that removes this in some (many) circumstances
Tandy TRS-80 runs for 20+ hours on 4 AA cells
Remember that in most of the western world Obama would be considered Right of Centre, and Bush Very Right of Centre

The boot times are mostly due to the very high security environment, pre-boot hard drive encryption and extra security software

90 days is the construction time
Add to that the time to plan and prefabricate and you end up with a time similar to a conventional building

Metric is used in most of the world, including China where this is being built
The US uses metric for many things
The BBC Trust upheld the complaint
Strange I am on GMT+1 now and every year I am on GMT
Seems to be very similar to UTC but every system seem to refer to it as GMT

Last Mile - Owned by BT and mostly very low quality copper
BT will not invest because they have to give access to anyone at below rock bottom prices and might on the whims of the government get it taken away from them at any time
No-one else will invest because they can just hive off BT, the only exception is Cable, which is almost all one company...and so they have no reason to invest further either
