IPS leak suggests ID card fingerprint chop

@ mike richards

huh? ;-)

why not just abandon the whole thing altogether?

It has never and will never provide the 'security' that the government have been desperately trying to tell us it would. Pour the money that will be wasted on this into something that needs it, heck I would vote labour if they said we are abandoning ID cards, ilegal wars etc and all that money is going to go into education and the health service.

I do not want to live in a country where I am forced to carry an ID card and if I refuse to do so I become a non-citizen and instantly looked upon with suspicion. Besides I imagine the criminal element are probably able to forge cards already, it happened when we were told Chip and Pin was the answer to card fraud

anyway I am done ranting. My hat, my coat, my gloves and my phoney dog poo

Is it or isn't it? Brown keeps bottling the ID card question

interesting....

Gordon Brown says "I think over the course of the next few months people will see that there is some wisdom in the argument that we have put forward for identity cards themselves"

Does this mean we can expect some unpleasantness blamed on "terrorists" in the next few months so the naive masses have the frighteners put on them and are crying out for security in the form of ID cards?

Parents to get classroom spynet in 2010

*comic book guy voice* oh please take away (more of) my privacy, i do not want it!

Are there really people so insecure they want the government to wrap them up in a blanket so much so they are willing to sacrifice their privacy (and the privacy of everyone else in the country) in order to feel "safe"?

Saphirre and Steel? If Hollywood are struggling (what with a writers strike and all) how about we convince some studio of the market for a big budget remake or re-visioning of Chorlton and the Wheelies? I can see it now, Keanu Reeves cast as Chorlton, "Woah, ello funny lady!" let's face it, his accent could not be any worse than it was in Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Light sabre on cargo manifest for next Shuttle mission

i remember reading somewhere...

that NASA were going to raise funding by offering to take advertising into space, i can think of nothing worse than an orbiting McDonalds or Coke logo shining down at me 24 hours a day. A friend once had a theory (after seeing a shot of the inside of the international space station) that it was just a giant hydroponics lab for growing the CIA's cannabis (you know the stuff that makes eggs look like brains - thanks Bill!) and that was how NASA was going to fund a journey to Mars.
