ID Card Bill goes to Commons for second time


database, originally uploaded by lotsofbigideas.

Tomorrow, 28 June 2005, sees the second reading of the ID cards Bill. Actually, the most scary thing to me is not necessarily the idea of ID cards but the 'database state' that's being proposed.

All the evidence suggests that it's not going to tackle terrorism or illegal immigration, to say nothing of the massive costs involved and the impact on some fundamental ideas about human liberty.
