Oh is this the way they say the future’s meant to feel?

Interesting situation with this video by Don’t Panic.  It was on Youtube, but was taken down when Conservative Future claimed there was some sort of copyright infringement.  I’m no expert on IPR but it seems OK to me:  various members of the Cameron Youth were interviewed, and the interviews were put online – how can than infringe any copyright?  OK, the interviewers were not entirely sympathetic and were maybe doing a bit of a Louis Theroux in trying to persuade the subjects to say something outrageous, so I can see the Tory boys and Tory girls not being happy about it, but how is that a copyright issue?Bloody scary film though.  Where do the Tories manage to find all these chinless middle-aged teenagers?   Is it for real?  its like a load of Harry Enfield caricatures and despite the name change they all sound very much like the old Young Conservatives that I remember from when I would have been eligible to join them.  (Eligible on an age basis only)   I was half expecting them to break into a quick chorus of ‘Tomorrow belongs to me’.

As far as I can see the Conservative Future looks suspiciously like the Conservative past.
