There are serious people and serious organisations trying to destroy
our society, Charles Clarke told a Daily Telegraph interviewer
yesterday, before adding: "We are in a state of emergency."
Fine, except that we aren't. And this is the basic political and legal
flaw in the home secretary's extraordinary plan for control orders that
place terrorist suspects - as well as their friends and relations, it
now transpires - under executive sanctions ranging from tagging to
house arrest.
