An IRSP spokesperson today said: "It is a farce to believe that the PTA or 'internment without trial' has gone away, especially if you are Irish. Any Irish person can clarify that such a policy by the British state hasn't gone away, in fact, it has been used against many Irish people in this present climate of so-called 'peace'. "This emergency legislation drafted by the British Labour Government for an introduction of new terror laws is a total farce. Many members of our class and minority communities are already of the opinion that any further movement to introduce more stringent laws, whether it is directed against the 'War on Terror' or other issues, would be yet another nail in the coffin for people's liberty and equality. "The IRSP believe that such new laws would undoubtedly lead to greater arrests of any individual who is, at this moment in time, opposed to the present imperialist policy of war by the forces of the 'New World Order'."
