IDs, badges and cards: Do we really need them?
- ID badges and cards will:
- Not help protect people from identity fraud and theft.
- Will not ensure that people are who they say they are.
- Will not tackle illegal working and immigration abuse.
- Will not disrupt the use of false and multiple identities by criminals and those involved in terrorist activity.
- Will prevent free public services from being used by those who do need them
- Let the Government track all of your financial interactions (above a certain amount).
- Stop you working, travelling far, buying a car, getting health care if any kind of mistake is made in your computer record.
