I presume Home Office and Thames House are trying to get what they can  
rammed through by this government before it falls, worrying that the  
Tories might not be quite to friendly towards surveillance.  Still,  
Labour claimed they were in favour of civil liberties until they came  
to power: didn't we speculate that Jack Straw had been given `the  
briefing' after which he signed off any and all measures that were put  
to him?
