No compromise. Kick the new Terror bill out.

I love compromises. They always remind me of the Spitting Image sketch where David Owen and David Steel were discussing who the leader would be of their new political party. David Owen suggested a compromise of a name from each candidate. He suggested a surname from one and a forename from the other. He offered his name, Owen, as surname and would take David steels forename, David. Therefore the next leader would be David Owen. It was a Spitting Image classic.

Now we are talking about compromise on the terror legislation. What exactly does this mean. Three bullets in Jean Charles de menaces head instead of seven. A month in custody with no charges or recourse for Walter Wolfgang, the labour party heckler, instead of three.

These laws will be a nice add on for the new ASBOs we are talking about. Cause any trouble and be arrested under the Terrorism Act and held without charge for a while. Released with no apology. How many people have been arrested since 2001 and released without charge?

The old communist regime had nothing on us. We are showing them how they should have gone on with it. They just were ahead of their time. They needed better technology.
