there not making them compulsory, however they are making it damn near impossible to go abouts your daily lives without one, ergo it is compulsory.
i dont have anything to hide, however they are pushing these cards through as a counter measure for terrorism, just like everything, SHOCK NEWS FOLIC ACID IN YOUR BREAD PREVENTS TERRORISM...(and has been show to have minure effects on preventing spinabiffida in babies) ID cards will not cause any decernable worry for anyone involved in terrorism in this country because well its fairly obvious looking at those involved in the july bombings... they were all british citizens and therefore living here legally, and as such will be able to carry an ID card.
this is becoming closer to 1984 big brother state, soon we will all have tracking devices in our cars charging us by the mile and for breaching speed limits. we wont be able to think without the government second guessing us. sorry state of affairs.
and whoever trusts this government to not sell database info to external sources is putting too much trust in a government that is corrupt (cash for places in the house of lords..) unlawful (going into iraq under false pretences...) moneyled (going into iraq for oil...) and more importantly, completely ignorant of the wants and needs of the people who elected them to power and who they are supposed to be working for.
someone somewhere is going to be making alot of money out of ID cards, and its not going to be any of us, who will have to shell out for it.
oh and 2blue4u... there are systems in place already for the majority of the things on that list. and for things like hotel rooms why the hell should i have to prove who i am to rent a room for the night, as long as i pay the bill, does it matter?
NHS - why dont they spend money on actually sorting the NHS, rather than ninnying about with cards as to who is and isnt intitled to health care, probably 99% of people are intitled to it in this country, its what we pay our taxes for
i could go on, its a massive waste of money, that we are going to have to foot, and knowing tony blair et al, it will be used for other purposes which are not altogether good
