Date: 2018-09-08 03:49 pm (UTC)Raab has been put in the job on the basis that he will be loyal to May and I think he will. I’d ignore the posturing with him.

Date: 2018-09-08 07:44 pm (UTC)I think there are politicians where I would see a close connection between their espoused and actual positions (Johnson, Davis) and politicians where I’d see a notable difference between the two (May, Hunt). At this point I’d put Raab in the latter camp.

ARTICLE 5
Right to liberty and security
1. Everyone has the right to liberty and security of person. No
one shall be deprived of his liberty save in the following cases and
in accordance with a procedure prescribed by law:
[...]
(e) the lawful detention of persons for the prevention of the
spreading of infectious diseases, of persons of unsound
mind, alcoholics or drug addicts or vagrants;
==========
Scotland legally abolished the crime of "vagrancy" in 1982, but people are still being arrested for it in England.
