If it's included in the price, what's the big deal. I got a new driving
licence a while ago - for anything serious, you need both the paper part
and the plastic part ... a ballsache, but havent seen any complaints.

Only people with something to hide dont want an ID card, (plus the do
gooders who continue to protect those with something to hide)


I lean toward the "nothing to hide" view of things but I don't support the
ID card idea as I see it as a total waste of money that I can't see
imprroving security or reducing crime one iota.


I'm with you on that one.

I have no real objections *in principle* to ID cards. But I think
these will cost too much (whether we pay directly or via taxes), and
will not do most of the things being claimed for them.
