Introduction
The introduction of an article should answer the questions ‘who’, ‘what’ and ‘where’. In this case, we find out from the introductory lines that the article concerns the use of CCTV cameras in the UK. The introduction has a sarcastic tone and announces recent developments regarding the state surveillance system: “Don’t get so agitated, a minister in the last Labour government once told me, most CCTV cameras do not work anyway.” (ll. 3-4); “For an alarming, and timely, wake-up call has been sounded by Britain’s first surveillance commissioner.” (ll. 5-6)
