Warnings over new Terrorism Act
    #5511077 - 04/13/06 03:40 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

An anti-terror measure introduced after the July 7 bombings in London has come into force amid warnings it could make the country less safe.

Under the Terrorism Act 2006, it is now a criminal offence to "glorify" terrorism in the hope of encouraging others to carry out such atrocities.

But critics of the new law say it is so widely drawn it could curtail free speech and put legitimate political protesters in danger of being prosecuted.

The latest weapons in the armoury for fighting the terror threat were finally approved by Parliament last month following a bitter battle with the House of Lords over glorification.

The element was opposed by both the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats and at one stage survived a Labour backbench rebellion in the Commons by just one vote.

The Terrorism Act 2006 also outlaws the distribution of terrorist publications, planning or preparing an attack and giving or receiving terrorism training.

It makes trespass on nuclear sites a terrorist offence and allows organisations involved in all such activities to be banned.

Human rights group Liberty said it was concerned the law would outlaw "passionate speech" and criminalise non-violent political parties and "make Britain less safe by silencing dissent".

Another highly contentious element of the new laws - the ability to hold terror suspects without charge for up to 28 days - has not yet been put into effect.

The Government had wanted to increase the limit from 14 days to 90 but 49 Labour MPs helped vote out that plan - Tony Blair's first Commons defeat at the hands of his own backbenchers.

Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with Islam all over the world as long as it's not radical Islam. As long as I can drink my vodka (I'm Russian) and smoke my weed, I am fine with Islam.
