Amnesty Blogs: Press release me, let me go : TPIMs: Franz Kafka’s missing work

TPIMs, “Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures”, are the Home Office’s latest way of dealing with people it deems suspected terrorists in Britain. It’s the third supposed “solution” to the “problem” of what to do with people it believes are a threat but says it can’t deport or put on trial.

You have voted in favour of detaining terror suspects without charge for 42 days, in favour of identity cards and in favour of a long series of bills curtailing the freedom to protest. There's certainly consistency here, though it is not clear what principles you are defending.

damianrafferty — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 12:37:59 +0000

After the defeat in the Lords over 42 days, my anxiety is that Jacqui Smith will push through other draconian laws to prove she is undefeated by namby-pamby, bleeding-heart softies. She already tried to push secret inquests under the command of a special appointee (not an independent coroner), keeping out family members and lawyers. That Stalinist idea went the way of 42 days.

But he added that "we need to understand that it is in the nature of state power that decisions taken in the next few months and years about how the state may use these powers, and to what extent, are likely to be irreversible. They will be with us forever. And they, in turn, will be built upon. So we should take very great care to imagine the world we are creating before we build it. We might end up living with something we can't bear".

"I am very angry at the House of Lords," the prime minister said at the EU summit in Brussels. "They should not have rejected the proposals we had for pre-charge detention, which in very special circumstances would go up to 42 days. They defied the will of the House of Commons which was expressed in favour of those."

If Mozart can write three symphonies in 42 days, why are the police so slow?

Niluccio — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 12:38:53 +0100

Why 42 days? What they mean is six weeks, of course. Six weeks! Six weeks in prison without being charged! Anything could happen in six weeks. Wars have lasted less than six weeks. In six weeks, Christopher Columbus crossed the Atlantic and discovered the New World. Six weeks was enough time for Mozart to write three of his greatest symphonies. William Faulkner took six whole weeks to write his novel As I Lay Dying; John le Carré wrote The Spy Who Came In From the Cold in five.

House of Lords deals fatal blow to 42-day terror detention plans - Times Online

damianrafferty — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 22:02:42 +0100

Plans to give police up to 42 days to question terrorism suspects were crushed by the House of Lords tonight, halting a three-year, high-wire political battle begun in the aftermath of the 7/7 bombings.

The Government conceded defeat after peers defeated the measure by 309 votes to 118 - the biggest defeat since hereditary peers lost their seats in 1999 - and in a humiliating climbdown announced that the provision would be removed from the Counter-Terrorism Bill.

Govt. forced to drop 42 days plan

damianrafferty — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 21:53:31 +0100

Gordon Brown tonight abandoned his parliamentary battle to allow police to detain terror suspects without charge for up to 42 days, after the Lords overwhelmingly rejected the proposal by 191 votes. In an emergency statement to MPs tonight, Jacqui Smith, the home secretary, said that the counter-terrorism bill would continue its journey through parliament without the 42 day measure.

But in a face saving gesture, the government will publish a bill containing the 42 day plan; this bill will be held in reserve to be introduced should there be a terrorist emergency. Ministers said they had decided to follow this course because the introdu

BBC NEWS | Politics | Ministers shelve 42-day detention

damianrafferty — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 21:50:51 +0100

Home Secretary Jacqui Smith has told MPs that plans to extend terror detention to 42 days will be dropped from the Counter-Terrorism Bill.
It follows a heavy defeat for the government in the House of Lords, which threw out the plan by 309 votes to 118.
Ms Smith said instead the measure would be in a separate piece of legislation to be brought to Parliament if needed.
The Tories said she should just say she was abandoning 42 days. The Lib Dems said it was a "humiliating retreat".

BBC NEWS | Politics | Peers to vote on anti-terror plan

damianrafferty — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 10:58:37 +0100

Amnesty International is to run a "mass sleepwalk" through Leeds, to coincide with the launch of its film Sleepwalk aimed at highlighting what it says is a largely unnoticed erosion of liberties.
UK director Kate Allen said: "There's a real danger that people in Britain are sleepwalking into an assault on our human rights."
The government failed in 2006 to extend pre-charge terror detentions to a maximum of 90 days. Instead, the current 28-day limit was agreed as a compromise.
