Counter-Terrorism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Dear (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 8 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bills on Counter-Terrorism Bill.
My Lords, for the sake of the record, I was not comparing Nazi Germany with this country. I was merely giving an illustration of how it is easy to go down a slippery slope of justifying steady incursions and encroachments in civil law and civil liberties and getting into a position where it is impossible to defend the arrival point. I was not saying that we are like Nazi Germany and it should not be imputed that I was.
