BTW, I was answering the point made on Radio 4, not arguing with you Ramrod (we do appear to agree the government shouldn't just be able to imprison people without proving they are terrorists).

Signing the official secrecy act doesn't mean someone can have access to all levels of security information. There are many different levels of security clearance, some of which the names cannot even be repeated.
Anyone who has been involved in this sort of thing should be able to confirm that from me!
