Is it an intentional plan to destroy freedom and institute absolute police power? If so, it isn't working the way is was supposed to work in England. Sure, Britain is a police state, but there is absolutely NO control of the criminal element, while the citizenry at large seems to be nothing but a huddled mass of scared rabbits.
If the goal was total control over the population, it has been a miserable failure. The end result would seem to be complete anarchy. Ultimately, either major changes in British law are going to have to restore a citizens' right to self-defense, or the entire former rule of law is going to be ignored and the country is doomed. Mad Max-ian society may be only a few years away.
