Am I the only one old enough to have noticed New Labour's reckless disregard for civil liberties?
I don't know why Labour got such a bee in their bonnet about ID cards. I vote for them if I'm in a good mood. But it would have cost a fortune. If you really need to do it then why not just insist everyone has a passport, as most people travel - but as for everyone having to carry one at all times - no way!
I always wonder on my travels if I'm supposed to have an official ID, but on the other hand I don't want it nicked, so I usually carry a photocopy of the passport info on me and leave the real thing in the hotel safe.
