Terrorism Bill

I am genuinely astonished by the Minister’s response to the right hon. Member for Southampton, Itchen (Mr. Denham). He agreed with the thrust of the description of the position that the right hon. Gentleman pithily gave, but then dissented from the right hon. Gentleman’s verdict on that description. It is extraordinary that someone should be incarcerated here for something that is not illegal in the other country. I politely put it to the hon. Gentleman, who has served with distinction as a prisons Minister, that there are great pressures on the Prison Service, but we are not a prison service for the world.
