Idea of the day: Restore the right to silence

This journal entry is part of the Power 2010 campaign

This idea is from Martin is Essex:

Tell us your big idea:

Repeal the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA).

Tell us why this change is important to you:

Clause 49 removes the right to silence. This is compounded by the fact that RIPA includes its own D notice: you can't tell anybody that you've been subject to it.
