There were a few callers who identified themselves as Tories, who said had they known the Conservatives were not going to be tough on terrorism, they wouldn't have voted for them in the recent local elections.

You're right its not electorally popular. When they discuss terrorism act it is a very emotive topic. I know of at least 10 people I've talked to about this, and they've changed their mind once it transpired more than 28 days has never been needed. If it had been, I'd be supporting this bill.
