William Crawley | 20:57 UK time, Tuesday, 27 February 2007

Loaded magazine called her "an anarchist in a barrister's wig", and The Dastards penned a song called Shami Chakrabarti in her honour. Since becoming director of the civil liberties campaign group Liberty in 2003, Shami Chakrabarti has become something of a household name -- in many ways, she's now the face of human rights in the UK. Shami is my guest tonight on William Crawley Meets ... at 11.05 on ´óÏó´«Ã½ One Northern Ireland. We'll be talking about the meaning of "freedom" in the post-911 world.

David it was quite an interview. Shami used chicken nuggets to explain why torture is wrong. Seriously!

With mobile telephones, global positioning systems, internet connectivity,and the convergance of network systems,long with biometric identification systems being introduced, would all indicate that whereever you are and whatever you are doing someone will know. is this invasion of privacy the first steps towards George Orwell's vision of big brother controlling you, and is having this technology a price worth paying.

Thank you
