Why is it that you can get jailed for shooting a burglar while he/she is robbing your house in Britain?

What's up with the TV fees? Every TV owner has to pay a substantial fee to the BBC, and I've heard stories about non-TV owners being harrassed for not paying the fee.

Are there any sizable parties in the UK that are either libertarian or US-conservative (or even US-center-right) in scope? So far, the Tories , Labor, LibDems, and BNP all sound left-of-center, at least by US standards, in economic issues.

Anyone propose actually cutting/eliminating the welfare state?
