The North Bridge hotel was the venue for a discussion on the scheme between Meg Hillier, the Home Office minister for identity, and business and local-authority representatives.

All those arrested were members of NO2ID, an anti-ID card campaign group, including Geraint Bevan, its Glasgow organiser.

A report will be submitted to the procurator-fiscal.

   Were they arrested because the did not have the correct ID? LOL I propose they don’t protest like that, they should hack the data systems and embarrass the government by selling the data on say ebay. Play to your strengths, not to the governments strengths. Find a good hacker and pay them say £500. Reply | Quote selected text | Link to this
