Its not verified, of course, but would you really put it past this government? The government who has already worked viciously to squash dissent within and without its own party, who cannot stand the idea of the people using their right to protest (outside of the offices we give them, no less), that uses anti-terror legislation on peaceful protestors and declares legitimate civil disobedience a "disgrace".

Before you think "well, at least he's not in power anymore", just remember - Dr John Reid, ex-Communist party enforcer, is. So think happy thoughts, loyal subjects.
