transport for london's data protection registration make pretty unpleasant reading.



why, in every purpose listed, do they want or need to collect data on anyone's racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or other beliefs of a similar nature, trade union membership, physical or mental health or condition, sexual life?



now you can call me naive or paranoid if you want but i completely fail to see what business it is for anyone to know those things. i especially can't see why a body with responsibility for transport could possibly need to know them.



unless, of course, it's being run by a runty little twat who's recently stopped being socialist and has transferred his allegiance to the war-mongering, freedom-hating capitalist scum and he's going to do their spook work for them.



cunt.
