We are calling this "Raise the Colours (or, The Ballad of Little Bobby Jenrick)" - it's a musical commentary on #raisethecolours celebrating @RobertJenrick's latest antics, with a ukelele gradually going out of tune. 🇬🇧🏴
ICO should be embarrased by his inaction, when the Human Rights Commission has acted to join the JR concerning unlawful use of facial recognition CCTV by the Met Police, Detailed background on: amberhawk.typepad.com/amberhawk/2025…

This is an unkind/kind of a happy birthday song, which only makes sense if you've seen #Frozen & know the Troll song "Fixer Upper." So it's niche. There are some rude words in our parody version, titled "F*&ker upper" (no kids were exposed/involved - don't ring in to complain 🫢)
Can I suggest that people listen to the BBC's Americast podcast "Did Donald Trump provoke the LA public unrest"? The discussion is about the USA is moving to authoritarianism via the improper Presidential use of "national security" powers. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0…

A song we adapted from "Iris" (Goo Goo Dolls) about seeing and acknowledging what's happening now, in Gaza.
If anyone wants a list of things that are wrong with DUAB, please look at evidence to the Bill Commons Committee (URL) below and my blog in May. amberhawk.typepad.com/amberhawk/2025…. The evidence to the Bill Committee is on amberhawk.typepad.com/files/problems…
What does "habeas corpus" mean? Well in Trumpian USA, it means “a constitutional right the President has to remove someone from the USA” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on bbc.co.uk/news/videos/ce…
I have just discovered a major DUAB failing with respect to the Purpose Limitation Principle which will have an interpretation to protect the Controller's interests re data sharing. See amberhawk.typepad.com/amberhawk/2025…
I have just discovered a major DUAB failing with respect to the Purpose Limitation Principle which will have an interpretation to protect the Controller's interests re data sharing. See amberhawk.typepad.com/amberhawk/2025…
DAUB degrades the Purpose Limitation Principle so that it does not meet the requirements set 45 years ago in the CoE Convention No 108, in 1981. This plus Annex 1, Annex 2, rights reduction etc are significant reduction in data subject's protection. amberhawk.typepad.com/amberhawk/2025…
