A couple of useful articles on the dangerously authoritarian tendencies of our current Home Secretary, David Blunkett:
- Now Blunkett plans to jail friends of terrorist suspects - Blunkett plans to jail people for merely associating with a suspected terrorist. In yesterday's Observer.
- Contempt for liberty - Peter Hitchens on the danger to law-abiding citizens of Blunkett's proposed ID card scheme. In the current Spectator (you'll need to register; it's free).
