Police and security services will get new powers as the UK faces a terror threat "perhaps greater than it has ever been", the home secretary says.
Unveiling a new counter-terrorism bill, Theresa May said the UK faced a security struggle "on many fronts".
Counter-radicalisation measures - requirements that schools, colleges and probation providers help prevent people being radicalised
Changes to TPIMs - Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures - to allow the authorities to force suspects to move to another part of the country
Raising the burden of proof for imposing TPIMs from "reasonable belief" to "balance of probabilities"
Greater powers to disrupt people heading abroad to fight - including cancelling passports at the border for up to 30 days
Statutory temporary exclusion orders to control return to the UK of British citizens suspected of terrorist activity
Tighter aviation security - requiring airlines to provide passenger data more quickly and effectively
Banning insurance companies from covering ransoms
Forcing firms to hand details to police identifying who was using a computer or mobile phone at a given time.
BBC News - Terrorism laws: 'Time is right' for new police powers
TPIM's without any real evidence eh? Stalin did that with Gulags, he was such a nice man that the Tories now want to do the same. Still think this is a free country?
Are the terrorists calling the shots now, in which case they have won or are the government just wanting a 1984 style country?
