Terror? What terror?

RE: Terror? What terror?
" The creeping irreversible curtailment of civil liberties in the name of national security is playing the game by terrorist rules. We owe it not only to ourselves, but to future genarations to do our utmost to uphold and safeguard our civil rights. "

This was expresed by former chief of the defence staff, Lord Craig of Radley, in a debate on civil liberties this week in the House of Lords.

Just sometimes, the ermine-clad class actually come up with something an old leftie can support!
Good show, my lords and ladies!
HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
