This is very scary, and quite possibly completely ineffectual in dealing with the actual problem it's trying to solve: http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2017/10/anti-terrorism-law-boost-security-france-171002073720302.html

Perhaps the French could try better intelligence gathering?

Terrorism is winning isn't it?

Slowly, but surely, we're giving up all the rights that our forefathers fought so hard for.

I've occasionally toyed with emigrating (with a sense of irony) to get away from all this. New Zealand is my favourite option.

I've never looked that far, though I do have relatives in Oz. I must admit to toying with parts of Europe over the years, but I've always held back for one reason or another. Maybe once Brexit is settled I'll take nother look?
