ID cards will become compulsory for all foreign nationals, working immigrants and marriage visa holders as of November 2008. The new scheme is basically a pilot scheme to soften the blow when the Government inevitable introduce the cards as a compulsory item. The ICT involved in the scheme is quite extensive:
• Each card will have a chip holding all your personal data. Including you face, fingerprints and iris patterns.
• There will be a massive database with everyone’s data stored upon it so anomity will become a thing of the past.
The scheme that will be put in place in November is just a dupe to soften the blow when the cards a made compulsory for all citizens. The amount of Immigrants the scheme is been tested on will have no impact on the amount of immigration and illegal work going on in Britain.
I believe Id cards are a complete breach of our privacy, Id cards are just another step on the road to Britain becoming a real life manifestation of George Orwels 1984.
