Well Nemo answer this one.

So you will not object to a government spy camera in every room of your house, including your bedroom, linked back to a police monitoring station? Apparently a lot of crime goes on behind closed doors. Child abuse, criminals conspiring, thieves dividing up their loot, drug dealers etc. The police could clear up a lot of crime with these new powers. Surely if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear?"

This has more to do with the database This information will be stored onto a National Identity Register resulting in the creation of a National Identity Register Number. What gives this government the right to spy on you? We live in a democracy and the government is here to work for us not the other way round. As I have pointed at the whole system can and will be open to abuse.
Do you want the police knocking on your door and arrested you for something which you did not do? All because someone had used your information for there own purposes.
It's not far fetched at all it is possible and once you got your card what next the RFID to be implanted into your body? You can not tell me that is democracy that is slavery. |
Are spy cameras and implanted electronic chips part of the ID card package then? Steed I think you are going over the top with the 1984 scenario. Identity theft is happening now without ID cards in operation, so I don't see that they would increase crime in this area in fact they might even have the opposite effect. What have we really to fear from a piece of plastic with details on it to prove who we are? The only people that would need to worry are those who shouldn't be here in the first place. As mentioned in earlier posts the ID card will show that you are a proud citizen of the UK and are entitled to the benefits that the country offers.
