Have we achieved “Ing-Soc” yet? It seems George Orwell was a few decades off when he wrote “1984.”

True observation by yourself. On a lighter note- and someone has to laugh sardonically, I remember WW2. The "blackout" was enforced by newly appointed Air Raid Wardens. Very officious some of them were. I remember a voice saying to the householder.

'Ere, you've got a bloomin' chink in your curtain".

Ooh! the racist devil! (sarc)
