Home Secretary responds to human rights allegations
The Home Secretary has reacted strongly to accusations by human rights groups that harsh treatment of those suspected of glorifying or encouraging terrorism or of associating with those so suspected might in certain circumstances be interpreted as a possible breach of international law.
Several human rights groups, including a United Nations official and some anarchists who were quickly broken up by police, have condemned the latest Home Office measures to deal with the terrorist emergency.
The measures include indefinite detention with psychological and physical co-operation enhancement inducements for anyone suspected of communicating with anyone in a manner likely to foster, glorify, distract public attention from or otherwise encourage terrorism.
The measures have drawn widespread cross-party support from within both the NuLibLab Coalition and the NuConLib Alliance, although the leader of the opposition, Boris Johnson, criticised the Prime Minister for "insufficient alacrity in pushing these necessities through the window of opportunification."
Responding to accusations of human rights being almost possibly breached, the Home Secretary said that "the human rights of the dead and dismembered - those who have been killed by bombs - are frankly more important than the rights of people still living who may very possibly be considering contributing to possible future acts of violence and mayhem."
