I.D. Cards... if only they had 'em in Bombay

I've got nothing against ID cards per se, it's the cost of the scheme that really fcuks me off. Think of it this way... call a halt to the ID card scheme & there'd be no need for congestion charging in Manchester and there would still be plenty of cash left over for a huge investment in to public transport in the area.

I have no intention of carrying an ID card, compulsory or otherwise.

the current plan is that they won't be compulsory. the catch is that you won't be able to get a passport, open a bank account, etc, etc without one. the only way to stop this crap is to vote out this government in the next election which will take place in 2010 at the latest.

I've nothing to hide so i don't mind ID cards or even DNA samples taken from everyone,it's just the bloody cost.

It's not about "hiding" anything, but there's a right to privacy! What if someone suddenly decides that your currently "lawful" personal activity is now illegal..? Drinking too much alcohol, posting your views on the internet, travelling too fast in your car at ALL times, membership of any party, union or institution...?

We have passports, driving licences, debit cards etc.... Why something else?

Go back to sleep... Your Government is in control...

To arrive at the simplest truth requires years of contemplation.
Bit of a bugger for someone who thinks "Swales Lives" that one,but think about it.

We should all carry ID cards and we'd all be perfectly safe.
aye. cuz a plastic card will automatically protect you from bombs.

wind your neck in mate, ID cards are as useless as shoving a fork up your arse.
