Episode 44 - Kiss Privacy Goodbye

August 10, 2008

Orwells GraveBack on June the 25th, for the second year running myself and Dr John Perivolaris, visited George Orwell’s grave for his birthday.

This year we were accompanied by Phil Campbell and Brian Jones and as we picnicked in honour of Eric Arthur Blair, we also discussed our ever diminishing civil liberties, asking what is public and wondering If George Orwell could ever have known that it would not be the tyranny of socialism but the triumph of capitalism which is making us kiss our privacy goodbye?
