Suspend sittings of Parliament
Destroy or requisition private property
Ban public assemblies
Limit freedom of movement
Establish special courts to try suspects read full story / add a comment

A small group of watchers stayed awake, the rest of us went back to our cold beds. read full story / add a comment
