call me cynical but...

Just watch that national ID card legislation sail through. Only 15% of the country supported the government after the last election, this will ensure total fealty to a smarmy Blair and whatever he wants to do. Ken Livingstone and the opposition parties will now have no grounds to reject ID card legislation, especially with the Olympics coming to London in 2012.

The police state measures they'll get out of this will be overlayed onto all forms of transport. In fact, you won't be able to travel without the ID card.

MI5 have been caught involved in IRA bomings multiple times over.

You don't think
Blair has a problem, with people telling him that supporting US action made us a large target for such an event?

You cynical bastard!

Obviously these atrocities wouldn't have taken place if the ID card scheme was in force.

The next obvious step is to use ID cards as a means to access public transport/public buildings etc. so that the government can keep tabs on exactly where every single member of the public is at any given time.

you are being sarcastic with "the these atrocities wouldn't have taken place" thing right?

The entire post is a sarcasm farm
I'm anti-ID card and think the whole scheme would be totally ineffectual against 'The War on Terrorism'.

Sarcastic, yes.
