(7.6.2016) The UK government‘s bid to massively ramp up surveillance of Brits‘ Internet activity has been supported „in principle“ by the Labour party after it claimed that „significant demands“ were met by home secretary Theresa May.
Labour‘s shadow home office minister Keir Starmer told MPs during day one of the report stage of the draft Investigatory Powers Bill that his party had undergone a „constructive engagement“ with the Conservative government, which led to a number of changes within the proposed legislation.
