Terrorism Bill

I am very grateful to my right hon. Friend—he is being very generous. Of course we face a terrible terrorist threat in this country and around the world. However, let us consider the example of Burma and imagine that I said the following to the Karen people: ““It’s fantastic that you blew up that railway line and didn’t injure anybody, as an act against a regime under which you do not have democracy. Please keep doing it again and again, until the regime in Burma is changed. As long as you don’t injure people, I’ll support you blowing up railway lines.”” If I said that, would I not be breaching clause 1?
