Not a joke. In Great Britain and Ireland, they were entertaining a law to prohibit smoking in a car, alone or not.

human rights activists and church groups.
They monitored animal rights advocates and cyclists
pushing for more bicycle lanes. They opened a dossier on Amnesty International. (That group's crime was listed as "human rights.")
The troopers created files with titles like:
"Terrorism: Anti-War Protesters," and
"Terrorism: Anti-Govern," and
"Terrorism: Environmental Extremists," and
"Terrorism: Pro-Life."
To Maryland's finest, even Quakers, the ultimate pacifists,
constituted a "security
threat group."

An historical perspective from John Harris
The video is described thus;
http://mefeedia.com/entry/the-truth-john-harris-bristol-talk/13384496
THE TRUTH - Part 1 HistoryBristol talks with his message which encapsulates our true position in the world, and how we got here. Recent findings and collaboration with TPUC members & fellow researchers has allowed John to present in simple terms his understanding of Political and Regal history, Common Law, Statute Law, Contracting and much more.
He gives a stand up account of history and Magna Carta's relevance to us.
Interestingly, he asks who in a subject sovereignty, is represented.
I noted the premise of this question wasn't really explored further when talking of the creation of parliament, but if you think about it, if a member of parliament has no legal requisite to actually represent his constituent electors ( us ),then "we" have no political rights at all. We actually get a choice of parties but the party we elect has no legal requisite to actually carry out its manifesto. Even in the case of referenda a government and parliament has no duty to act on it but instead ( like an MP ), can act on its own conscience and thus ignore the people.
Check the video out.
