Well they just voted down Blair's bill to authorise 90 day detentions despite polls showing the electorate supported it, in other Conservative MPs voted politics and party over popular will.
Just like the Dems do now.

It would be good to see Plod arrest anyone for the July bombings, so far they haven't found anyone.

I gather the 90 days is because they take so long to investigate. It took 2 weeks to make that Leeds bomb factory safe, before any forensics could be done. The perps could have walked half way back to pakistan in that time.

At 28 days the UK has the longest holding period of any western country, by miles. 90 days was far too long, Plod needs to stop worrying about Health and Safety and get on with the job.
