Once it leaves, this protection is removed, and the controversial Investigatory Powers Act – which has been ruled unlawful under EU law – will be part of considerations on whether to grant an adequacy deal.

Basically line-up a few fall-guys for D.P Minister (or whatever*) to catch the flack as poorly amended bill after lazily amended bill gets rammed through trying to amend RIPA hoping at some point the EU will marginally accept it.

* or maybe not Home Office Minister seems to come with 'brass neck' in job description.
