(Oh gods, I *really* don't want to start off the ID card threads again, but I *have* to ask this...)

Then why are you "glad" that the ID card scheme is back? How is that going to make you feel safer?

I am going to a major sporting event in a couple of months in Cardiff and it has crossed my mind it could be a target with 75,000+ people in one small area.
And how are ID cards going to protect you there?

Personally I hope that we have another asylum/ immigration scandal in the near future that makes Blunkett's tenure as Home Secretary completely untenable so that he's forced to resign which means we're going to be *much* less likely to get an ID card scheme foisted on us.
