This is appalling on so many levels that I don't know where to begin. The result of treating the Jihadist war as a police matter? The outcome of badly written anti-terrorism law? Abuse of police power? Violation of parliament? It stinks so much of the police state that I hesitate to use the word because I'm not sure if I'd be indulging in hyperbole or understatement.
Ah, well. It's what I get for taking a couple of days off.
Update: How the
Conservatives should handle this. Though, frankly, I would rather Her Majesty do it from the throne.

Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
