Why should they charge us anything? Unlike a driving license or a passport, it's not something that is of particular use to us or something that we're clamouring for. If the government want us to have one, let them pay for it.
OK, I know it's our taxes that pay for it at the end of the day, but it's the sheer arrogance of the government that gets my goat; "Listen, peasant, we know what's best for you! Oh, and that's £40 you owe us."
