Just to highlight this a quote;
Abu Qatada's case makes a mockery of the 42-day detention debate. He spent six years behind bars without being charged.

Last week, in his resignation statement, the former Tory shadow home secretary David Davis rightly described the 42-day pre-charge detention period for terror suspects that parliament had just authorised as "a monstrosity of a law".

Now this article may have certain political leanings, but it does point out the total farce of the Tory and Liberal opposition to the 42 day rule.
