Let them eat cake (or buy an ID card)

Manchester gets ID cards.

You can tell when a government is out of touch when they think it is okay for ordinary people to volunterily pay £60 for an ID card they do not want, do not need and has no practicle use.  The trouble with Jacqui Smith and her ilk is that they have spent so much time sponging off the tax payer they have lost all concept of the value of money. To them £60 is a claim for a new set of scatter cushions, so an id card is virtually free. For you and me £60 puts food on the table, shoes on your children’s feet or the ability to heat the house for a few weeks.  

 I hope the good people of Manchester have the sense to boycott this ridiculous waste of money.

FYI, Jacqui has just handed over nearly £650,000,000 to IBM and SCS to build the ID databases, money well spent? (more)
