Terrorism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Dominic Grieve (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Terrorism Bill.
My hon. Friend is making an important point. As he is showing, one of the things that the Home Secretary has done is to give constant illustrative definitions but no comprehensive definitions, so the scope is wide. As my hon. Friend says, glorification could be much more than praise and celebration, even though praise and celebration are singled out in the Bill. Does he agree that that is part of the mischief of passing such opaque legislation? It leaves people in uncertainty, which is a bad principle on which to legislate.
