Abbott: I was subject of undercover policing
MPs have debated plans to give security services greater powers to intercept the communications of internet users in the UK.
ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Secretary Theresa May said the draft Investigatory Powers Bill would allow officers to see a list of websites visited without needing a warrant, but safeguards were in place to ensure the content of a person's browsing history was not immediately accessible.
On the Daily Politics, Labour's Diane Abbott said it was a "much better bill" due to the involvement of judges and her party would put the bill under scrutiny.
The shadow international development secretary said: "l have to admit to the fact that I have a slight element of bias, because I was the subject of undercover policing in another life."
