Fiddling MPs fiddle while parliamentary democracy goes belly up.

Only when the matter of secret inquests was raised and Conservative MP Henry Bellingham observed by way of a prologue that an issue of freedom was at stake did Michael and Brown look up. Bellingham said he had spent time out of parliament between the 1997 and 2001 elections and that he was shocked when he returned to see what Labour was doing to constitutional rights and civil liberties.

"The government," he said quite mildly, considering the circumstances, "is trampling on the rights of the individual and has turned this into a less free country."
