Proceeding contribution from Mark Hunter (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Counter-Terrorism Bill.


Counter-Terrorism Bill

May I offer my hon. Friend an alternative quote from Sir Ian Blair? He has said on the record very clearly and simply:"““We do not have a case that has required us to go beyond 28 days.””" Does my hon. Friend not agree that that comment, taken alongside similar comments from Sue Hemming of the Crown Prosecution Service and Sir Ken Macdonald, the Director of Public Prosecutions, probably provides the most powerfully damning indictment of the Government's case?
