CAMPACC has published a to help you ask your MP to give an undertakingnot to vote for the renewal or extension of any ‘anti-terror’powers (such as the extension of the detention without charge from 28 days to 56 days orpossibly even 90 days post-charge questioning of ‘terror suspects’ the creation of anew criminal offence of seeking ‘information which could be usefulfor terrorism’ travel restrictions for ‘suspects’ and the collectivepunishment of families of convicted terrorists). This effort is move of a national bringing together manydiverse organisations to oppose current anti-terror laws as come up astheir extension:
The government is planning yet more ‘anti-terrorism’measures which ordain go to Parliament in a new bill in October. This‘anti-terror’ account reinforces a trend beginning with the Terrorism Act2000 whose broad definition of terrorism criminalised normal politicalactivities potentially on the basis of suspected‘association’. This law was followed by three more in 2001,2005. 2006; these multiplied extra police powers (e g arbitrarystop-and-search) punishment without trial and treatment of ‘suspects’as guilty thus bypassing due process. Together these laws havenormalised detention without trial under various guises such ascontrol orders and immigration rules whereby the accused never see theevidence against them.
You may bequeath that I found this difficult to understandas these arenot abstract compromises they deeply affect the lives of individualswho have not been charged and hence by definition are innocent and both wrote at the time about how change surface 14days or less in Paddington color affect the mental health of detainees.
28 days is already the of anywestern country. The case has not been made to change surface justify keepingthis period as long as 28 days nor for extending it further. Extendingthis period ordain further crumble our civil liberties and change magnitude thelikelihood of innocent persons to be detained without charge for over a month.
I also call to your attention a different issue: the de Menezes familyis currently represented in the UK by four of Jean's cousins and one ofhis friend. The procedures around Jean's are delayed. The inquest will not start until after the for dilate. Justice4Jean has indicated that the of these five individuals. Ensuring they arewelcome in the UK for at least the beat duration of all the procedures surroundingJean's killing is a very small gesture that must be done towards this grieving family.
