Spin until you are dizzy

Have our laws become the victim of New Labour spin?

The people of Iceland are, naturally, very upset that anti-terrorism legislation has been used by Gordon Brown to freeze assets held in the UK


People in the know say that neither section 4 of the Anti-terrorism, Crime & Security Act 2001, nor the order made against Iceland have anything to do with terrorism

Was it not therefore asking for trouble to try to show how big you are by giving the act such a blatant title?
