Do you really need to ask?

I take it that this is a rhetorical question.

Our political establishment has been convulsed by a debate about whether suspected terrorists can be detained for 28 or 42 days without charge. How is it, then, that this young girl, who no one has suggested has ever committed any crime, gets more than 80 days with no outcry?

You could tell her how but then we’d be here all day and there’s horsey racing today apparently. Let’s not spoil it. I’m putting my money on ‘Sociopathic Inertia’. It wins every time.
