Well 49erDweet, if you have nothing sensible to say, don’t say anything. Going by your comment us Brits like to talk about things we haven’t a clue about and then we get saved by our American cousins.
In some cases I would agree about talking the talk, we have a government that likes to do that but doesn’t like to walk the walk, look at the state of our armed forces for proof of that, Lions lead by donkeys. Who to blame? Our wonderful government whose answer to everything is “It’s not our fault” The point here is don’t blame the Brits blame our soft government, the same government that Dubya can’t see past.
Can you explain to me what difference 42 days detention would make to anything? If a person is arrested on terrorism charges then the police must have already had enough evidence to charge them, so why do they need more time? As has been pointed out before the UK has a history of “Abuse of Power” how would you like your trash bins to be searched to make sure you’re not throwing plastic in the general rubbish bin, sound silly? These are the kind of things the ordinary British citizen has to put up with, and what law allows the authorities to do that? “The Anti Terrorism Law” as I said abuse of power.
We need our western cousins to pull our fat out of the fire, what are you talking about?
