The UK is not a socialist nation in any way, shape or form. The only remotely socialised thing we have is the NHS and that has suited people fine.
UK surveillance culture increased only in response to IRA terrorism. It was a practical measure.
You call Blair a socialist. Margaret Thatcher has said that New Labour (the shift of Labour towards the centre) is the proudest result of her legacy in British politics. Blair has been a stalwart world leader in the fight against international terrorism.

It started in the 1990s when the global telecommunications companies started corrupting national governments. Britain was the first so-called "free country" to implement email and telecom survelliance of all it's citizens. Then it made a deal with Bill Clinton's federal agencies to surveil US citizens as an end run around our privacy laws. Way before the WOT.
