A Remarkable Achivement

A very good Fisk by Chris Lightfoot of Charles Clarke’s LSE Speech on the media and civil liberties.

Look out! There’s a SAFETY ELEPHANT on the rampage! ”; his (Clarke’s) basic thesis being that New Labour hasn’t eroded our civil liberties and anyway it’s only doing it for our own safety.

The speech is remarkable in that almost every factual assertion Clarke made about the recent legislation of his department was false. Even for a modern Home Secretary this is a remarkable achievement.
