Yes. we're all a bunch of criminals - or soon will be - or could be criminal so best to retain everything just in case.

Given the letters we get from 'two homes' Smith - it doesn't surprise me.

Government ignores ECHR

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/03...base_stalling/

Almost three months on from the unanimous ruling by the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) against the UK's mass retention of DNA of innocent people, the situation has turned worse. Although eventually the UK should become compliant with the ruling, police forces are adopting a wait and see attitude, while Jacqui Smith is pushing back any response.

Meanwhile, the Government has tabled an amendment giving sweeping powers on DNA retention, use and destruction to the Secretary of State.
