The Guidelines set out that the police will recognise the holder of a valid Press Card, issued by the UK Press Card Authority Limited, as ?a bona fide news gatherer?." It seems the UK is no longer a nanny state but has become a uber nanny state with Elsa, she wolf of the SS, in the role of nanny. Internal papers is something found in Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union not a democratic western state.
