Proceeding contribution from David Winnick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Terrorism Bill.


Terrorism Bill

I did not think that there would be any controversy about the acute terrorist threat. Anyone who tried to make out that those of us who put a different view do not recognise the acute terrorist threat would be silly. For heaven’s sake, let us consider what happened on 7 July, when so many totally innocent people were massacred. Let us not go down that route.
