ID Cards update

Big Brother Watch details the ways in which Gordon Brown's totalitarian Labour government intends to force segments of the population to take an ID card. Meanwhile Victor Cardiss in the comments remarks that:

"two hundred and sixty countries are introducing the same Biometric ID card, yet they insist an calling it a 'national' ID card.
The same private, American company will administer the database in each country (though it may have a different name in each).
By the time it becomes compulsory you'll need it for everything and you'll look like a bit of a Ludite for not wanting one. It will however have so many problems that the government will have to come up with an incredible, global solution.... The personal ID Chip!
