I thought the UK was a limited monarchy? Aside from Magna Carta, IS there a delineation of individual rights for your citizens? (1st question is sarcastic, the 2nd is an actual question).
So many things have happened these last 12 years. Laws that prohibit demonstrations near parliament. Laws allowing the government to store and read your e-mails and texts that came in force a week or so ago. Laws allowing over 500+ organisations to enter your house without a warrant. (It used to be only two, HM Customs and Excise and the Fire Brigade, for obvious reasons) Laws that allow local authorities to spy on you, your kith and kin. Laws that allow 28 days detention without charge. Powers to stop and search a person, giving no reason. Laws that prohibit the taking of photographs of the police. Laws made by decree. (called statutory implements) Laws passed to facilitate ID cards, which they say will not be compulsory. Fat chance. I could go on but it's late and I'm tired.

rorys right, we are fast becoming a police state.
