@ The Apeface CherubLots of countries have ID cards - I've got no problem with that. My flatmate has an Italian one, as he's dual nationality and they have to carry them (obviously only when he's in Italy).
The issue I and a lot of other people have with it is that the proposed British scheme isn't comparable at all to any other country - the amount of data they're proposing to collect, store and make available via the card is unprecedented. When I say I'm against ID cards, it's actually the database I'm objecting to more than the card per se.
See here for more details.
