Just an example.
Holding anyone for years and subjecting them to any kind of torture is wrong. Especially if there are no charges. Especially if they are somewhere where the law doesn't apply. It isn't about whether or not anyone kept there is a terrorist... its about human rights pure and simple. What the Americans have done there is wrong and us Brits are just as bad by allowing and encouraging it in any way. Dammit. Its stuff like this, stuff you secretly now is wrong but are perhaps afraid to say because people might think that because your not OK with torture and unjust prison captivity, your somehow pro terrorist. Well sod it... its wrong. Is eroded our sense of right and wrong... and it will only lead to bigger bites being taken out of our moral code. Soon enough it will seem OK to execute without trial.
