Your fingerprints for ID cards to be used to check unsolved crimes
Blair has shown his true colours. The bill went thru parliaments and this was not mentioned. Everyone feared it but that liar said it wont be used for this purpose. Now it turns out the liar was after all lying.......our fingerprints will be used to check for unsolved crimes. Ofcourse no one will be bothered by this.........Blair knows how dumb this electorate has been....they elected him twice.

There must have been a provision written in the original Bill that went before parliament to allow for the fingerprint data to be used for crime detection. The fact that no one made a fuss about it may indicated that most law abiding people probably think it is a good idea, and it would be a criminal waste of data not to use it for that purpose.

I agree with admarlow, but it doesn't go nearly far enough. Why wait until a crime is committed. We need to pre-empt them to make the country properly safe.
I think we should have the right to access the medical records of people and look for things like anger management and violence issues, because these people are bound to be the criminals of tomorrow, and it's my civil right not to be attacked.
Also, we should be able to access people's Blockbuster accounts and library records see if they're seeing stuff we don't approve of, cause it's my civil right not to be attacked.
Cameras and microphones in everyone's houses would be useful. All disent could be immediately stamped out.
Actually, thinking about it we can't trust anyone, so I think everyone should be locked up and treated like a potential criminal. Everyone apart from me, obviously.

I don't really understand this fuss with the ID cards. All we will be doing is carrying a little piece of plastic with our name, DOB, photo and fingerprint. This is no different to pretty much every other passport or ID card in the rest of the world.
I can't see why the fingerprint issue is an infringement of civil liberties, I have nothing to hide and have no problem having my fingerprint out there to prove so.

This is a rather trite comment on a serious subject, but I'm not convinced that fingerprinting is that reliable. I've just acquired a new laptop computer which requires you to swipe a fingerprint across a sensor to activate it to log on. It has repeated refused to recognise my right index fingerprint, often on 12 successive occasions.
So how will fingerprinting on an ID card work, with what I imagine is similar technology?

Hmmm, i dont think id cards are the answer. They will be a waste of time and money.
What should happen is, from birth, everyone is fitted with a microchip. that data then can be updated whenever is needed.
Each person would have a unique 'identity' . this could solve many social issues too. the benefits are endless.
the only thing people would whimper about are the infringements on their civil liberties.
I say a small price to pay, to be able to walk the streets safer, let kids play out more on their own, etc, etc.
