Re: How many days?
so why do you?
A lot of the reason people are for it is because they just like the sound of it.
"we need to lock up terrorists for 90 days to save lives" blah blah blah.
The fact that the rest of the legislation is being largely ignored by the media is quite frustrating too.
"glorifying terrorism" "encouraging or training terrorists" and "supplying materials that could be used in terrorism" are all offences without requiring proof of intent.
So goodbye Chemistry, Guy Fawkes night and libraries.
I've just had a thought though, could we arrest Tony Blair for encouraging terrorists?
Also, someone somewhere mentioned something about having to apply to a judge to hold a suspect for longer than 7 days and reapply every 7 days... does anyone know the details about this?
