Well, if you have nothing to hide then what's the problem?

No-brainers can abuse the system to harass innocent people for their own twisted purposes, and that definitely needs to be sorted out. Otherwise nothing to hide, but they can leave a roll of money and letter of apology on the way out, thank you very much.
There needs to be compensation made for anyone whose privacy is violated by a government agency if the person is proven to be innocent in other words, since it can be a traumatic experience to be wrongly accused. Laws of that nature might make people think twice before making wild and false accusations, including the government.

Certainly not. It has nothing to do with having something to hide. It has more to do with freedom, and we don't live in a nazi state. They start getting powers like that, what is next. The government is already slowly eroding away our freedoms, under the facade of anti-terrorism, global warming, and health. All because they refuse to accept responsibility for their own incompetance, and instead increase tax, and pass bullshite laws, to appease the PC and bleeding heart minority. It's sickening.

Only under conditions as laid out in the 4th amendment to the Constitution. Whether you have nothing to hide or not as you put it. It's still your right to deny entry without a warrant addressing all matters spelled out in that Amendment.

The shouldnt have any right to be honest.. it's your private space.. Unless they have reasonable supicions that you're up to no good, then no..
I think it's going way too far.. .you may aswell just never close your curtains, leave your front door open or just live in a field with the sheep and the cows..
people need a sense of space...

It depends on what they want to inspect ! If it is drugs they are after, OK, but if they want to tax ownership of plasma TVs which was was being talked about on TV and the media a month or so ago, then... that is theft !! -- Sometimes I wonder if they (think tanks?) are trying to find ways to tax SEX ...l to tax us for breathing air.

They can try entering my home and although I have nothing to hide, they won't be let in. Can't we claim an abuse of our human rights to be allowed to live in our home without Government individuals intruding.

You have the right to refuse entry to your home to all except the police who must have a warrant signed by a magistrate. The only people who can legally enter without a warrant are the customs and excise, which I personally think is wrong.This applies to the UK I am not sure about other countries.

Nobody has a right to enter my home unless I invite them; I am a law-abiding citizen so the police or government have no need to enter my home.
