    Incidentally further to the above.

    Section 76 of the latest Counter Terrorism Act came into force yesterday.

    It creates a new offence, one of nearly 4,000 new thing for which we can be imprisoned for since 1997, of "eliciting, publishing or communicating information" relating to members of the Armed Forces, intelligence services and police, which is "likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism".

    Professional photographers held a protest because it means they could actually be imprisoned for photgraphing the Changing of the Guard.

    Dont laugh - we have seen counter terrorism laws used by councils and to eject a frail old man from the Labour conference. Make a law and someone will want to abuse it.
