The inarticulate rants of a paranoid who has looked around after the birth of his granddaughter and does not like what he sees.
I'm a divorced guy with two grown up kids. One has a child of her own so I'm a granddad. Makes me sound old which is right. We live in the NW of England and I'm a manager in a computer consultancy and tend to get involved in fixing things. I enjoy my job which seems to be unusual in this day and age even with the Dilbert type things that drive me loopy.
You might not like what you read here but it is the way I see it.
As you have probably worked out I have an opinion on everything. I'm happy to discuss any subject with anyone and it's not unknown for me to change my views with a new viewpoint or a few well thought out arguments.
Leave a comment if you want to contribute. You never know you might make me change my opinion.

A thought occurs to me. If we don't get an ID card, - how will they know? And if they've got enough information to know I haven't got an ID card, then they don't need an ID card.
As far as I can see, it is one expensive white elephant, which we will have to pay for.
I suppose if you are off the radar and stayed in all day you could get by without one but you would quickly become unstuck if you needed medical attention or got pulled in one of the 'Show me your papers' stop checks while in the shops one day stocking up on booze.
I can't see this getting off the ground now. Blair can't push it through without the support that appers to be slowly dripping away. Maybe if he didn't have his education reforms. He is more likely to push ID in through the backdoor by updating the KGB style driving license.
I hope he loses on his educational reforms. The two failures could be enough to trigger a vote of no confidence. Fingers crossed.
