Tagging asylum-seekers - The Herald, 19 July 2004

Tagging asylum-seekers - The Herald: "Editorial Comment
It was as predictable as night following day that plans to use telephone-tagging technology to monitor asylum seekers in Scotland should be portrayed as the acceptable face of Big Brother. Accordingly, The Herald is told today that the plans will amount to the lowest form of intervention, by implication less intrusive and judgmental than would have been the case based on the proposals outlined by David Blunkett in November last year."
