Modified anti-terrorism laws

The Home Secretary has stated in the Commons that he is extending the modified anti-terrorism laws to include British citizens (BBC R4 just now).

Obviously British citizens detained without trial (house arrest or whatever) do not have the same option as foreigners of being sent back to their country of origin.

That's the government's answer to the Law Lord ruling on the liberty of people detained without trial; to further impact upon liberty in Britain. Agree with the government on this issue or not, there is no denying that as a result.

I've got to say, I love the title from this post from the Honourable Fiend: Tough on human rights, tough on the causes of human rights. Tee hee.
