Stop the charade
AC: "So how do we stop this charade? Do we vote for Conservatives? They said they will scrap this scheme. I hope they are not lying, as politicians usually do!!!"
Of course they're lying. A quick examination of their recent track record will easily prove it (for example, just try getting a straight answer out of them about them giving us a referendum on Lisbon). They say one thing, but even BEFORE they're in power theu're already hedging their bets in preparation for their back-tracking U-turn.
The only party that I have seen that is adamant and unequivocal about scrapping ID cards is UKIP.
Not only have UKIP clearly stated their intentions in their manifesto (which in and of itself is not that big of a deal, as manifestos are not legally binding) but far more importantly UKIP have teamed up with NO2ID (and NO2ID have serious credibility in this particular area and wouldn't form an alliance with UKIP if UKIP were being half-hearted about the matter).
One example: http://www.ukip-bradford.org.uk/no2idinthemedia.html
After coming in 2nd place in the last Euro elections, UKIP are now going to field candidates in ALL wards nationwide in the coming UK general election. Sure, they won't win an outright majority, but then again they don't need to in order to scupper plans for the ID card scheme. They just need a decent number of seats in the House of Commons to constantly put a spanner in the works.
