David Davis has been a candidate for the leadership of the
British Conservative party but he has also made a name for
himself as a civil liberties campaigner - arguing against what is
sometimes called the 'surveillance state'. So what does he make
of the massive collection of data by the US National Security
Agency and Britain’s GCHQ revealed by the American
whistle-blower, Edward Snowden? In the years since the 9/11
attacks - have we got the balance wrong between liberty and
security?
