Hi,
O.K, I think a bit of BBC spin,Poetic Licence...
I'm sure at 10:00'ish this morning it did not have "plans"
It was updated 22 mins ago, and the format looks different...

Hi Dave.

The bill is still at the draft stage and will have to be passed in both Houses.

The worrying thing is there doesn't seem that much opposition in parliament, so lets hope that will change.

I'd contact my local MP, but he was caught in parliament playing "candy crush" 
Mmmmmmm so he must be knowledgeable about all things computer  ;)

Keith.

Oh man, they're going to find out about my addictive personality now!

For me it's one of those where on a personal level I don't want it, but the reality is it's probably necessary.

Sounds very similar to the crap we've had forced on us in Australia that came into effect last month.
Our ISP's have to keep it for two years.
