Good lord! The UK truly is turning into a police state...

That Britain suffers from rampant anomie, concealed by low murder rates, is arguable. That the place is becoming a police state isn't. The last laughable "measure" to be seen there was CCTV cameras which issue orders to passers-by. The next will be hovering drones, fitted with cameras, speakers and microphones, to hum around the streets, looking for criminals.

"Attention citizen! Pick up that gum wrapper! You have 30 seconds to comply!"

What kind of science fiction dystopia are they building over there?
