Council says "NO to ID cards" !
Cllr. Sheila Smith-Pryor sets out the case at full Council meeting.
At the full Waltham Forest Council meeting on Thursday, 20th July, Chingford & Woodford Green councillor Sheila Smith-Pryor (Hale End & Highams Park ward) seconded the Liberal Democrat motion opposing the introduction of ID cards in Britain.
In her very effective, well-researched and persuasive speech, Sheila spoke of the costs of the scheme and the potential technical problems. She stressed that ID cards would do nothing to prevent terrorism, crime or fraud.
Conservatives supported the Lib Dem motion which says "that the disadvantages -- will outweigh any benefits to the people of Waltham Forest"; resolves that the Council should affiliate to the "No2ID" campaign; and instructs the Chief Executive to inform the Home Secretary of the Council's views. The motion was passed comfortably.# posted by John Beanse @ 3:45 PM

I think it can do. Because the ID card is using for the purpose of identification and for collecting information.
