Stonewalled: 'UK closer to police state after crackdown on Snowden files' (VIDEO)







The British government's attempts to stem the tide of articles on mass surveillance have gone beyond intimidating the journalist behind the publications.

The UK government has reportedly confirmed the move was sanctioned by the Prime Minister himself.
