UPDATE: Further research shows that the Express didnt quite have all
its facts straight. This scheme is active, and the numbers are fairly
accurate (if estimated), but the mentions of actual cameras in
peoples homes are exaggerated. The truth is that the scheme can take
the most troublesome families out of their homes and move them,
temporarily, to a neutral, government-run compound. Here they will be
under 24-hour supervision. CCTV cameras are not specifically
mentioned, not are they denied, but 24-hour supervision certainly
doesnt rule this out from the camera-loving Brits.
