What's wrong with the police raiding an MP's offices?

Victoria Derbyshire | 08:34 AM, Monday, 1 December 2008

The fall-out from Tory frontbencher Damien Green's arrest continues. His home and parliamentary offices were raided by counter-terrosim officers last week. One retired chief superintendent writes this morning "his arrest on suspicion of committing an offence that is directly related to his democratic responsibilities should ring alarm bells to every citizen of the UK who places a value on justice and democratic freedom".

The Ö÷²¥´óÐã Secretary says it wld be "Stalinist" if MPs intervened in what the police were doing. There's talk of some backbenchers staging a protest at the State Opening of Parliament on Wednesday.

So what should happen next?
