Petition Against Id Cards

In a previous post, a link to sign an online petition calling for a halt to the introduction of Id cards didn't work. If like me your are opposed to this unnecessary legislation, please follow this link to sign; http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/IDcards/. This cards will not prevent terror attacks. They will not prevent fraud and identity theft. They WILL cost in the region of £300 each. This is another stealth tax, and more importantly, a huge infringement on our right to freely go about our business as we please, without some busy body bureaucrat being able to demand that we prove who we are. Then there is the running of the damn thing. The last thing this country needs is yet another faceless government department, that answers to no one and has carte blanche to set its own budgets. So make yourself heard and sign up to stop this ludicrous plan.
