No Mandate Brown says he wants to win the argument for 42 days internment of “terrorism” suspects.
As I’ve pointed out many, many times, the terrorism laws we have now are appallingly slack resulting in people being arrested under anti-terrorism laws for such heinous offences as carrying a blank placard within 1km of Parliament and reading out the names of dead soldiers outside Downing Street. Giving the British government the power to have someone interned for a month and a half in the name of such a poor piece of legislation is just unbelievably stupid. It’s no wonder even Liebour MPs are opposing it.
I certainly hope Gordo doesn’t win any argument over this illiberal, unconstitutional attempt at advancing the police state.
