丘陵性総本店の大臣Megは方法で真実をねじっている政治家によってだけできる。

彼女はそれ以上の国会制定法が」が渡されたまで「国民性の機構の登録一般に強制的になることができないことを言う。 これは新しいIDカードをではない強制的意味するか。 当然ない、ので、そのうちに、政府はちょうど先に行き、この「それ以上の国会制定法を」渡すことができる。

彼女はパスポートに指紋を加えるために世界中の他の国が動いていること他の(民主的な)国がすべて本当単にではないNIR (国民性の記録)強力な建物のデータベースであることを提案し。 そしてあれば、私達はなぜそれらに続かなければならないか。

“The scheme will directly combat the use of multiple identities by criminals, which facilitates illegal activity such as fraud, terrorism, and illegal immigration,” she says, but in no instance have ID cards been shown to be a significant deterrent to terrorist activity.

How will ID cards deter illegal immigrants if they’re willing to repeatedly enter the country? How will ID cards stop benefit fraud when most benefit fraud relates not to ID but to over-claiming?

She says: “The NIR will, just as with the current passport database, hold core identity information. It will not be an amalgam of all existing Government data. It will not hold tax, benefit or other financial records.” But what’s to stop them adding these later?

“The scheme will be fully security accredited and an independent commissioner will oversee it,” she says. Is this the same commissioner who ordered the government to publish Gateway reviews on ID cards in July 2006 and was taken to the High Court by the Government? By the time the case has gone through the courts it won’t matter what Gateway reviews said.

She says: “I have yet to hear realistic alternatives … Doing nothing is not an option.” Again and again we hear of new laws to help us catch criminals and terrorists.

This may come as something of a surprise to Ms Hillier but catching criminals has never been the problem; the problem is that the Government keeps letting them go!

How often in the Mercury have there been reports of criminals convicted of 20, 30 or 40 crimes?

The Government does not need to make us all carry ID cards and watch us 24/7, just stop releasing persistent offenders and leave the rest of us to live our own lives without being told what to do.
