BBC NEWS | Politics | Lords condemn anti-terror plans: "Government-proposed measures to combat terrorism have been branded 'unlawful' and 'intolerable' by senior experts.

Plans to detain suspects for up to three months and a glorifying terrorism offence were criticised by Law Lord, Lord Lloyd of Berwick and Lord Steyn.

In an interview for the BBC's Panorama, Lord Steyn, a former Law Lord, warned people's liberty was being endangered."
