Tony Blair with the Labour 'for war' manifesto

"We do really seriously feel that the interest of public safety far outweighs the rights of particular individuals who are incredibly dangerous but there's not that evidential base there." Home Office Minister Tony McNulty, 28/06/06

In the last week we have had government ministers say that they want to suspend the Human Rights Act in the UK and that the Police must have the powers to stop and search people.

The government's role should be to protect the rights of the citizens - and it is not there to erode those rights. Who is going to protect us from our protectors?
