So it was the Queen’s Speech today in Parliament and we see an upsurge in scaremongering by Labour as reasoning is given for schemes such as the pointless ID Card Bill.
Supposedly this will cost the princely sum of £85 when bought with a passport, with the cards being rolled out from 2008. And the cost is just £3 billion. Yeah, right. It’s going to be astronomically more than that. It won’t make a blind bit of difference to any of the stuff it supposed to stop. We’ll just be living in more of a police state where everything you do ever is monitored and watched. 1984 becomes a step closer to reality.
And then there were the stories handily timed to appear in today’s Mail and Express detailing an apparently averted terror attach on Canary Wharf. Really? I look forward to all the details being revealed in what will undoubtedly be some of the highest profile trials this country has ever seen! Well, either that, or we’ll never hear anything more about this nonsense again.
