Yoshi:
Has anyone else on here got one of the National ID Cards???

I go for my interview tomorrow.

sMUDge:
Had one for the last 20 years?!!!  But I'm a soldier, so used to the idea of carrying ID  :D

Nothing to hide, nothing to worry about  :-k 

Plus it's not a lot different to the "new" driving Licence  :-k   :D

dxmedia:
Have a read of

first.

Please don't get one. You'll never get that loss of information back, and ID fraud will become easier and easier. (public key encryption anyone?)

crazymac:
It will be a cold day in hell before I get an ID card on this scheme!!

I'm ex Royal Navy, so obviously have carried a card during that time, but that just identified ME and not my life history, credit rating, shoe size etc etc etc!!

Lets face it, the Government cannot be trusted to keep details safe now, so why the hell should I trust them with more information??

dxmedia:
Walk past with an RFID reader, thank you very much that's a copy of your card.

Now what is it that's going to be needed for a passport, driving licence, bank account, gun certificate...

There's a reason why having several bits of paper rather than just one to prove who you are is a good idea.

Same with the DNA database, done nothing wrong, nothing to hide my arse.  I walk into a toilet and pull a tissue out of the bin, commit a crime and leave that tissue behind. There you go, DNA evidence at the scene of the crime. DNA can't be wrong. Do not pass go, do not collect £200.

OH make sure you renew your passport before the end of the year, they go fully biometric at that point.
