Wired and a bunch of others have all reported about a new bill pending review in Parliament which basically replicates the ridiculous DMCA laws in the U.S. (html, pdf) which have led to companies being allowed to define the use of their products. eg. If you buy a song from iTunes, you don't really own that song, you only own it in the supplied format and only for 3 copies (from memory)
Still early days but get ready to get riled up.
