Re: Democracy or Dictatorship?

In fact the Commons procedure committee have now stated that the bill is too widely drawn and open to abuse and that there are not "sufficient restrictions on the misuse of those powers".

The simple meaning? It could be "Goodbye Magna Carta, Habeas Corpus, the Parliament Act - and, if misused, Goodnight and Goodbye Democracy".
