ID cards won't prevent terrorist attacks; they won't prevent illegal immigration; they won't prevent identity fraud and they will cost each person £93.

ID cards are an invasion of personal privacy - would you trust this government with your personal data after they lost details of 25 million Child Benefit claimants?

You will need to collect your ID card in person - if you live in the South of Scotland, or the Highlands this could mean a return trip of 200 miles.
