Just when you thought it was safe, and the political posts had stopped, I discover that ID cards are the talk of the day in New South Wales now.
The fact that I’ve already got a photo driving license in my pocket has got nothing to do with it. I’m opposed to centralised population databases of any sort, mainly because they are never secure. I’ll be writing to my MP on this, just as soon as I figure out who that is.
Update. On the good news front Teenage Fanclub are getting back together again and releasing a new album in May. Which on past performance will be a thing of wonder and beauty. So I’ll be able to listen to nice music whilst my civil rights are being trampled courtesy of the taxes I’ve paid. Oh the irony.
