Identity Cards Bill

I am very clear on that point, as I am on all matters relating to that subject. When Mr. Frattini referred, on ““The World at One””, to the fact that he was in favour of securing our borders, he made it clear that he meant the EU borders. It is also clear that the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in his remarks yesterday—and the day before and the day before that, in his jostling for the premiership of this country—may be taking a divergent view of the principles in the Bill. The Home Secretary shakes his head—[Interruption.] He has his fingers crossed. When the Chancellor of the Exchequer refers to the necessity of ensuring that we secure our own borders, that is not the same as the arrangements that have already been set up and that are dedicated to preserving EU borders, not our own.
