2nd Reading on Wednesday ! According to the BBC, the leader of the House of Commons Peter Hain has announced that the Second Reading of this "Control Orders" legislation will happen this Wednesday i.e. only a day after it has been given its First Reading tomorrow !
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4284559.stm
Obviously hundreds of Members of Parliament will suddenly drop all their other projects and work committments, and will do lots of background reading and research so that they can come up with relevant and informed debating points.
Or will the Second reading "debate"" simply be Yet Another Rubber Stamp session ?
What is the Emergency that requires such haste ? If all the the Belmarsh detainees were released today, they would not constitute a huge , imminent danger to the citizens of the UK - they have no money or weapons or explosives, and would be under surveillance by the authorities.
as you can see by looking at http://www.terrortracker.co.uk the terrorist based in the uk are a real threat and most of them are so called muslims.
So how can "Control Orders" possibly protect us from actually dangerous terrorists ?
Why won't the obvious perceived injustice "Control Orders" simply act as a recruiting agent for more terrorists ?
Are the videos that Glen Jenvey and Neil Doyle have gathered actually the basis for the UK "incitement to murder" charges which Abu Hamza al Masri ("The Hook") now faces, or is there some other evidence ?
Many of the men under control orders are my friends. Their wives are my friends. They are the nicest people I have ever met and I would be happy to have any of them as my neighbour. Their crime? - they are observant Muslims. That's it. They are all innocent men. The have not been charged with any crime and have never even been interviewed by the police. They are condemned to living half lives and their wives and children are suffering terribly. It is time we all stood up, Muslims and non Muslims, and shouted about this injustice. It could be you next.
