Identity Documents Bill

That precise point has been made by Liberty, which opposes ID cards—[Interruption.] An hon. Member says that Liberty does not make that point, but it does, on the basis that ID cards for foreign nationals will be compulsory. Although it is a card with fingerprints and biometric identification, we cannot now call it an ID card, which is really silly—it must be called a ““permit”” or ““warrant”” or some such thing. Liberty says that either everyone should have a card, which is novel for Liberty, or no one should have one.
