The latest government action on ticket touting:
* The Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006
* The Ticket Touting (Designation of Football Matches) Order 2007
Prevent ticket touting for football (soccer) matches. Perhaps these should have been given a wider remit.
The alert among you will note (from the dates) that these were brought to you by Messrs. Blair & Brown, of the Labour party.

But we shouldn't allow the facts to interfere with a good rant!
