the government have some seriously misguided ideas about photography/public access/image rights/copyright

if the latest proposals make it through the lords then the cool brittania persona of tory blair and his cronies was just a shallow front to a money grabbing regime that followed. madleson is a twisted sour faced liar and a real cloak and dagger merchant.
change law regarding images 'found' on the web.
make a collections agency for royalties that nobody will know how to claim and keep the cash.
ignore international/european law and have no idea how the proposed legislation will work.
have lords with vested interests like lord puttnam who is a majority shareholder in a media company set to profit from the legislation, the likelihood of him admitting this vested interest in the house of unelected representatives is very very slim.
