My hon. Friend is making a superb speech. I put it to him that the intervention by the hon Member for Wolverhampton, South-East (Mr. McFadden), who will see the point if he reflects on it, was extremely injudicious. Precisely the same argument could, and in due course will, be made in relation to members of paedophile rings who download and study computer files. At present, no request for detention for 90 days without charge has been made by the police, but if we start on the slippery slope, we will go further down it.
