Terrorism Bill

The hon. Gentleman said something earlier with which I wholly agree, namely that many Members on both sides of the Committee are more concerned about the issue of glorification than they are about many of the other provisions in the Bill, not least because many of us have taken part in the fight—not necessary the physical fight, but the ideological one—against oppressive regimes around the world. I want to tease another response from the hon. Gentleman. He says that glorification is a stand-alone issue, but in fact the clause is worded to contain three lock-ins that have to go together. First, there has to be"““direct or indirect encouragement or other inducement to the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism””." Then there has to be glorification, as well as the emulation element. The three things go together. Glorification is not a separate offence in itself.
