To be perfectly honest I don't think the majority of the UK population care about it.
A significant chunk would be quite happy for people suspected of wanting to blow up buses/tubes trains etc. popped into a darkened room for a couple of months as they think, rightly or wrongly, the chances of them or their family being locked up are practically non-existent.
The majority are more worried about prices of fuel, mortages, food, crime to really pay that much attention to a piece of legislation that might be used a couple of times a year at most.
