DEEP IN THE "BROWN STUFF" AGAIN

Published: Friday March 7,2008 by Anonymouse

Like everything else Nu-labour have ruined, hashed or "cocked up" in their inane attempt to govern this country, the Biometric ID Card is a feeble excuse to find out who is living in the UK after the chaos they've created in losing control of immigration. They don't have a clue who has entered the UK or even how many have arrived...legally or otherwise. In the mid 1970's I was informed by a retired civil servant, the government intended to link the numbers of your Nat Ins/Health | Passport | Birth Cert | Bank Info..(from chq's-credit/debit cards) | Driving License | M.O.T | Car Reg | Voters Register etc, to one central reference number. Camera's would monitor the highways & shopping areas. I can vouch for some of this information to be true, on visiting a vacant property in West Midlands to ensure the doors & windows were "wind & water tight", I had to climb onto the roof of my car to access the grounds that were contained within seven feet high fencing. On climbing back over the fence I was met by a Police Officer requiring to know what I was doing. I had no means of identification but within five to six minutes he was able to confirm my name, where I lived, age, my employer...occupation etc, all from the number plate of the vehicle I was driving. Possibly since that occasion the data collection has improved, been lost or stolen however, try this same exercise with an immigrant...legal or illegal & you must come up against a "blank wall". Anyone ever noticed at the Polling Booths at election times, the reference number on the paper passed to you for the purpose of placing your mark against the person you are voting for. Try renewing your Vehicle Road Fund Tax over the internet, they now have records of your valid Motor Insurance & M.O.T...clever eh!!! ignore "CRAIGDAVID" & his continued rhetoric of "nothing to hide or scared of?", I'm off to rummage through his waste bin for info so I can Insure him for £1 million as a "business partner", may also get a few goodies via Mail-order...don't think they'll need a Biometric Card.
