Identity Documents Bill

Proceeding contribution from Pete Wishart (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 September 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Identity Documents Bill.
I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman, because I have that quote from the right hon. Member for Doncaster North (Edward Miliband), who said:"““As someone who is liberal on social issues and civil liberties, I accept that in government we were too draconian on aspects of our civil liberties…We have to have to be able to say we won't go back to ID cards.””" Come on, the rest of you—catch up! He might be your leader, because according to the opinion polls, he is ahead. You are way behind current thinking on this. Labour had a good record on civil liberties until new Labour came along—please get back in touch with your civil libertarian roots.
