1. Ken StephensonIt appears to me that some people care more for the rights of terrorists than the lives of people who they ruin. If the police say they need 90 days they should be given 90 days. Labour MPs are playing with innocent peoples lives. Conservative MPs are being their usual hypocritical selves.
