Identity Documents Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Brett (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 1 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Identity Documents Bill.
Will the noble Baroness provide the evidence to back up her conviction that the public do not want ID cards, as all the opinion polls taken by this and the previous Government do not indicate that that is the case? However, more importantly, is she saying that some people are rich enough to write off the £30 without worrying and complaining, while the people who are being punished are the poor people for whom £30 is more than they can afford, even if they can afford Sky Television? That is the logic of it.
