Worse than the ID cards bill

If the id cards bill is passed but with the cards voluntary, this little bill could be used to amend the law, making them compulsory.

All we have in defence is the word of a politician, who will not even be the man who chooses how it is used.

We are encouraging everyone to write to their MPs.

Good point. In fact the whole set of new laws will be a lot worse than the sum of the parts.

It's just about possible that they don't even mean this to be as malevolent as it is. In which case the government is merrily tripping along into a police state, instead of being deliberately leading us into one.

Incidentally, were you just searching for posts about this, or did somebody point you here?
