A Message fron Nick Clegg MP: Taking Liberties
June 13, 2007 12:36 PM
Last week I attended the premier of Taking Liberties. It's a new feature film about how Tony Blair and New Labour have been steadily taking away our civil liberties. Love it or loathe it, it's very thought provoking and led to a heated panel discussion between myself, Shami Chakrabati, Ken Loach, Clive Anderson and others after the screening. You can see the trailer at http://www.noliberties.com/trailer.htm
The film's website has listings for cinema screenings - www.noliberties.com/cinema.htm
[Editors Note: the film will be shown at the Silver Screen Cinema, Folkestone]
This may be a little different from our normal campaigning - and this film certainly isn't made by Liberal Democrats (if it was they might have mentioned all the civil liberties work we have done!) - but it certainly helps provoke further debate on the vital issues of our civil liberties and the powers of the state if this film is screened more widely.
With best wishes
Shadow Home Secretary, Liberal Democrats
P.S. We're running a poll on who Gordon Brown will pick to be the new Home Secretary over at www.homeofficewatch.com Please do visit and vote.
