Terrorism Bill

I have to accept that in this country today there are likely to be, for all I know, a large number of people who have committed undetected crime, including crime of very great seriousness. In some cases, the police may well have suspicions about such individuals, but that does not justify their arresting or charging them. The logical conclusion of the hon. Gentleman’s argument is that detention without trial of those who are suspected of one misdemeanour or felony after another can be allowed.
