	<description>The diaTribe blog is our occasional take on life, the universe and everything. Observations on current affairs, the environment, politics, humour and music/gig reviews. Travel diary and extreme sports stories, along with the usual rants/raves are also chucked in for good measure.</description>

<p>No real surprise that last night the government <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/7449268.stm" title="BBC Article (opens in new window)" target="_blank">managed to push it&#8217;s new anti-terror legislation through Parliament</a>, albeit with the narrowest of margins.</p>
<p>Despite the fact that this bill is likely to be killed before it reaches the statute books (either in the house of Lords unless the government invokes the <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/4024923.stm" title="BBC Article (opens in new window)" target="_blank">parliament act</a>, or in the EU human rights commission, which the government can&#8217;t influence too much), I can&#8217;t help but wonder what the hell the Whitehall worms are thinking.</p>
