why? sorry, not been following the news but I'm guessing it's bad.

a compromise between the lords and the commons on the prevention of terrorism act has been reached. this version is pretty bad, but the version the government originally asked for would effectively have made britain a police state.

Oh that. yeah. I felt that if I paid too much attention it would just make my blood boil.

I've been watching most of the debate since yesterday and although many past Home Secretaries (both houses) have spoken well I'm not aware that Blunkett spoke at all!

I'm not at all happy with the deal that was reached, but it did seem that it was the only way for things to end.

You mean it's not a police state already?

Don't worry

We'll get Mr Blunket back sometime after May. Disgraced Labour politicians seem to have more comebacks than Dracula.

I agree. Like, what did he do anyway? Had an affair (not really a public concern) & pushed though an application (right, like no other politician ever does that for their buddies)

well, that and be the 2nd most fascist home secretary in living memory.
