The House of Lords votes tomorrow on the Justice and Security Bill and various amendements have been tabled to try to and undo the most illiberal parts of the bill. Lib Dems against secret courts have helpfully provided a template letter that can be can download here and sent to Lib Dem (and Crossbench peers) - whose votes might just make the difference.
If the Lords passes those amendments, and the Government won't accept them, then there is hope that the Bill might just drown as it gets tossed in the waves between the two chambers. We can hope, anyway.
