I agree with Phil Booth, in response to this crap:
Phil Booth, head of the national No2ID campaign group, attacked the roll-out of the cards as a "softening-up exercise". "The Home Office is trying to salami slice the population to get this scheme going in any way they can," Mr Booth told the BBC "Once they get some people to take the card it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. The volume of foreign nationals involved is minuscule so it won't do anything to tackle illegal immigration."
Even the SNP and the LibDems seem to have called this one right.

Hazel Blears put up a fair fight on QT about most things this evening, but on ID cards she was beaten back. The audience - a pretty soft one who was with her most of the time - didn't welcome these. They don't think they will be secure and they think they will be abused.
It is a going meme that East Germany was less controlled and more free than Britain is becoming. The card is not a symbol of a government in control; it's an admission that they've lost it.
