No-one else in the mainstream media has picked up on this: Apart from a brief radio report i heard which said that these one ton bombproof bins will have 'twenty four hour news and security updates'!!.

It's the telescreens as depicted by Orwell. 24 hour, unavoidable, manipulated, untrue 'news' over our streets that we cannot escape.

Only difference being- the CCTV monitoring is not said to be built in- doesn't need to be, we already have it.

Hey, welcome to the forum. Good post!
This could be the start of something BIG. All public telephone boxes, post boxes etc could go the same way. Ensure you take a marker pen out with you at all times and colour-in the lens. We don't wanna make it easy for them,do we? :p
