Re: ID Cards
Against:

1. Cost - I can see a "can't pay / won't pay" campaign gaining ground. After all the history of any project like this begins with insane underestimating of the cost, then the inevitable overruns. Whatever they claim it will cost, you can probably quadruple that at least.

2. Effectiveness - perfect ID does not equal security, in fact, it could mean a false sense of security.

3. Data security - the catalogue of incompetence so far does not inspire confidence.
