Thank you Peter Mandelson.
Not words that you will hear me utter very often, but Mr Mandelson's recent proposals to give himself, or his successor, even more powers to create "secondary legislation" (i.e. legislation that is passed without debate) to amend the provisions of the Copyright Designs and Patents Act have persuaded me to do something I should probably have done a good while ago. I've joined the Open Rights Group.
Why don't you?
