"John Finnie, Justice spokesperson for the Scottish Greens and MSP for the Highlands & Islands, [yesterday] used Topical Questions at Holyrood to question Ministers about the latest revelations concerning mass surveillance."
"Documents released by US whistleblower Edward Snowden show that a policing body called the Scottish Recording Centre was given access to swathes of communications data including phone activity, internet histories and social media behaviour."
John Finnie MSP said:
"This sort of blanket surveillance is out of proportion, inefficient and incompatible with the European Convention on Human Rights.."
"There is clearly a culture of bulk collection of data that needs reined in. I will continue to challenge such over-reaching activities."

OK, but how does John Finnie not recognise that blanket surveillance by Named Persons is out of proportion, inefficient and incompatible with the ECHR?
