Card times

What is up with people in the UK - why are some so precious about ID cards? (The surveillance society).

Here in Belgium people have to carry ID cards by law, and I have never heard anyone have an issue with them. If ID cards help prevent and solve serious crime, what is the problem?

Perhaps in Belgium the government is a bit more careful with its citizens' personal data.

The UK government seems to keep leaving our sensitive data lying around in all sorts of unsuitable places.

Regards,
Gordon.
