Just heard on the news that we will now definitely have to have an ID card containing biometric data if we wish to have a passport.
For an introductory period it will be possible to get a passport whilst opting not to have an ID card but biometric information will still be taken and kept on record.
I don't know exactly why, it's kind just emotional but I really don't want to have to carry an ID card and I don't want the govt & police to have my fingerprints etc when I haven't done anything wrong.
Especially when the govt. are so corrupt - cash for peerages, PFI funnelling taxpayers money to Tony's cronies whilst the NHS is dismantled, immoral war etc.
I don't trust them not to victimise me in the future for having long hair or being a DJ/not having a proper job, not being married, going to nightclubs too much.
...and the police are allowed to shoot innocent people and get away with it, leave people to die on the police station floor etc etc, I don't want them to have data on me.
I know I'm just an ill-informed complainer but it seems wrong to me.
What other countries can you suggest I go and live in where I don't have to be fingerprinted, retina-scanned etc. and can feel less guilty about what my tax money gets spent on?
