The ID Cards Bill

Just so’s you are aware of what Big Blunkett wants to keep on file. Here’s a link to the Bill. Schedule 1 has all the information they want to include about us.
Identity Cards Bill

Schedule 1, Sub-section 9 (at the bottom of the page) is where it gets interesting (if you stayed awake that long) as it outlines what they will be keeping tabs on;

  • particulars of every occasion on which information contained in the individual’s entry has been provided to a person;
  • particulars of every person to whom such information has been provided on such an occasion;
  • other particulars, in relation to each such occasion, of the provision of the information.

In plain English, this means that every time you use the card, they will be monitoring – so every time you visit your GP, for example. Oh, and if you forget to tell them that you’ve moved house, that’s a £1000 fine, thankyou very much.

Big Brother is watching you!

  1. Hi Mark. The supposed idea that having ID Cards will help counteract terror is a nonsense, after all both Spain and the US had schemes in place at the time of both attacks. I hate the idea of ID Cards but I also have to accept that they will come in force. *Sigh*Visit me @ http://iridescence.blog-city.com/

  2. They won’t if enough people refuse. According to the UGOV poll, around 3% of the population are prepared to resist. That’s an awful lot of people clogging up the legal system. Enough civil disobedience can force governments to back down. Question is, do the British people have the guts for a fight?Visit me @ http://longrider.blog-city.com
