Likewise. General options:
1. Don't do anything the state considers naughty. I suggest you kill yourslf now if you consider this viable.
2. Steal someone else's WiFi and deal with the moral consequences. You can do this by finding a "VendorA7E4B4" lookalike SSID (default configuration) and using the password calculator here: http://www.nickkusters.com/Services/SpeedTouch/Lookup - I only know of this as I had to lock my router down due to unauthorised access.
3. Use a VPN and risk being logged or falling foul of RIPA.

4. Use a dead drop http://deaddrops.com/ and risk being bagged at site.
5. Use SSH tunnels + proxy and risk misconfiguration + logging and RIPA.
6. Use paper or sneaker net and risk stop+search and RIPA.
