In his outgoing days and weeks has Blair finally lost the plot? With new police powers being talked about and accusing judges of putting the rights of terror suspects first, I have to ask the question has Tony Blair lost the plot? When he talked of putting the rights of terror suspects first he really means our civil rights and the right of Innocent until proven guilty these are all our birth rights and should never been undermined. And with the new police powers being talked about who the Guardian newspaper claims the police never asked for such powers and has all ready split what is left of Labour's governing majority.
These civil rights that are being taken from us at an ever alarming rate are as I said our birth rights as human beings and when you give them up, even if you think or have been told it's only a temporary measure, they never seem to come back it's like sand running from your hand. For a democracy to work it requires two things, first we need an informed electorate that understands fact from lies, sadly we don't have this there is to many people with the "if I've done nothing wrong, I don't have to worry" attitude. And second for a democracy to work we must watch our government and scrutinize them not the other way about.
