And yet the opposition are going to abstain on the vote, apparently.

GCHQ already pwns the networks over here, the politicians propbably think of the charter as merely a formalisation of inescapable reality and their sacred duty.

I’m sure they’re all used to the idea that if there are any problems with litigation they can just whisper ‘terrorism’ and hide the problem in a secret court.

Did, already. Labour and SNP anyway. LD and Greens opposed, I think.

Passed by 266 votes.

Fuck abstaining. If Labour are in favour, they should have put their money where their mouth was and voted in favour. This is a pathetic excuse for ‘opposition’.
