Story: Home Office looks to high street for ID biometrics

A moot point

It is and will be a rether woolly subject until we know what the Government detailed plans are. But if the intention is to ensure that those non nationals among us have been granted an entitlement to reside here, then it would certainly be in their interest to carry an identity card to both identify themselves and their residential entitlement without the aggravation of temporary arrest. While a passport would identify an individual it does not provide any further information such as NI number or address or even entitlement to be here. It would also help prove entitlement to publicly funded services such as NHS facilities.
The need to have identity cards is a sad thing but the influx of many unsavoury penniless economic illegal immigants and the increased terror threat makes such ID cards a necessity.
