Just my 2 penny's worth
I'm a tad disappointed you think that way. Of course it is up to you but personally i don't want to be investigated. If it isn't an issue for you why don't you get a terrorist check up and inform on yourself. Let us know how it went.
All this does is get a million false positives and there isn't enough resources to check them all so the bad guys fall through the holes just like the 7/7 bombers.
Wankers.
I'm not saying I would want to be investigated. I said I would rather they investigated reports of suspicious activity than didn't. Lets face it, they won't find much on me except a bit extra food & a few legally held weapons. I've got nothing to hide from anyone. Imagine if you saw something you knew in your heart wasnt right & you rang the police or whoever & they done nothing, then the people you reported blew up on of your loved ones. You would be furious (rightly so).
As for this whole opsec, I can understand wanting to keep a low profile in your local area. But do you really think the checkout lad or lass at morrisons cares if you're buying 50 tins of beans & 24 extra bog roll? I know when I worked in a supermarket I didn't care & we certainly weren't asked to report it or anything.
