Habeas Corpus
 

If they vote for 42 days, they've really lost the plot. They abused the last lot of laws ferociously, and I have no doubt they'll do it again.

Using 'anti terrosist' laws to spy on a family to determine their school catchment area?!

Using 'anti terrorist' laws to rough up a pensioner for saying 'rubbish' during Jack Straws speech?...

Gordons doing the job of the terrorists; he's removing our freedoms bit by bit. I fear the Government more than the "terrorists".

...6pm...

Someone should snatch Gordon, or one of the others and hold them for 42 days without access to legal representation, or the ability to make a call.

Oh but wait, thats kidnapping.

One rule for them, another for everyone else....

You looking for a volunteer? ;)
(that would probably be seen as sufficient evidence now though...)


It scares me there's so much unrest in this country with regards to freedoms being taken away. But the majority is not only unaware; they don't want to use their noggins to work out what crimes are being committed.

Mind you; for ?3k a day compensation I might see if I can get myself locked up. Maybe protesting outside Westminister as that's NOW a terrorist offence? :thumbsup:

Re: Habeas Corpus
 

hmmm £3k/day you say, or £126k if held full term

It IS tempting you know, and its only a month and a half.

Could do it every year and have quite a good lifestyle.

Sounds like a plan

Who's in ???

Re: Habeas Corpus
 

note that the compensation is only if you are not charged...

if they invent some bull**** charge just to show that holding you for 42 days was justified, then you are found to be innocent, i assume you get nothing...

Criminal :(


28 days shouldn't have been allowed. We've once again lost our most basic of rights.

Government: 315. Opposition: 306. Majority: Nine

Another reminder for me to shave and try and get rid of my tan before going up there again... :rolleyes:
