Justice and Security Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Reid of Cardowan (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 21 November 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Justice and Security Bill [HL].

Perhaps I may respond and then I will give way to the noble Baroness, Lady Manningham-Buller. I was not trying to parody or even respond to the argument of the noble Baroness, Lady Kennedy, with the exception of her incorrect statement that there is no one from Labour here and her reference to Pakistan. The rest of it actually applied to the generality of the arguments that I have heard since I came in. I have made my position known on torture, but I have also made my position known on the obligations of government to protect the rights of the British citizen, including the basic one of the right to life.
