Would they create the noise if it was you or I arrested, or is it getting to close to be comfortable I wonder?

Fine comment — the best I’ve read on the topic so far.

To be fair, some of those doing the compaining have a history of opposing police state powers. Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour MP who has spoken out on this, has, with the Campaign Group of backbench Labour MPs, voted against all of the draconian measures. MPs of all parties have opposed this tip-toe towards a police state – sadly, they are in a minority.
