ID popularity?

So: in TWO YEARS, 1000 people said they wanted an ID card? She has omitted to mention the untold millions who are vehemently against them.
Jacqui Smith is not only not very good at statistics, her arguments are hollow and unconvincing. God help us.
By the way, did she mention that David Blunkett, ex-Home Secretary and passionate advocate of ID cards is on the advisory board of one company that stands to make millions from their introduction? .... I thought not.
