I have very great doubts about the ID card scheme, not because of the cards themselves, but about my personal information which is to be stored on some computer, somewhere, as every Government has proven track records of how badly they can manage such a huge amount of data, and keep it SECURE.
I thought the introduction of Photo bearing driving licences would eliminate the need for further kinds of identification for many services, but in most places, you have to produce the paper part as well as the photo part, so a complete waste of time and money.
I am also very concerned about the testing of the equipment which wil be used to scan eyes, and unless they are operated by fully qualified opthalmologists, I for one will NOT be subscribing to the ID card. I will not have my eyesight even possibly damaged by some untrained Group 4 jobsworth.
This is not something the general public actually want, it is a whim of Blair and his cronies, it will do nothing to prevent terrorism, nothing to prevent fraud by the big league fraudsters, and as it is a Government idea, why am I being told I must pay for their whims and fancies.
Other countries do have ID cards, but the holder does not have to pay for it,as we are being told we will.
The CSA has proven what a farce Governments have in dealing with a relatively small number of people, god knows what they will do with the whole population.
