Have their shenanigans lost us?
Is the fact that our young society is becoming iconoclastic and on the way to anarchy (The wish to live by social rules and without oppresive government) the reason for the mass of legislation ostensibly to fight terrorism now being rushed through?

That's retarded.
no but you have lost me mate.
It was the same in the 50,s, 60,s,70,s and 80,s, and then they all grew up.
Yeah sure, why not?
No.
All of that legislation is because of long-standing short-sightedness in foreign policy, and the need to do something about the steady stream of chickens that perpetually want to come home to roost. No conspiracy needed where stupidity is abundant.
For the flip side, the iconoclastic and proto-anarchic sixties and seventies gave birth to a minor wave of liberal legislation - not dominant by any means, but positive nevertheless. Reactions there were for sure. But some fairly solid gains were made - you can't easily sack someone because of skin colour, religion or sexuality any more for example. Those have stuck.
Good question though.
