ID v ego

July 28th, 2006

People of the republic, listen up. You do realise, that any card carrying that you do on the republic’s behalf will be purely voluntary (that includes wearing the t-shirt). Phew, at least we’ve got that cleared up.

The government’s plans on the imposition of ID cards was nicely brought together by Henry Porter’s piece in the Guardian recently (read it, it is worth it), was quickly followed by news that the programme has already run into trouble.

Despite the government’s own shenanigans, maybe we should start a ‘don’t card me’ campaign with a referee and a forlorn looking Rooney-type character banged to rights for wanting to preserve his liberty. It was only a thought.

Maybe it would be more useful to prove that liberty is actually a synonym for terror.
