The problem I have with this is not the ID stuff, I have no issue with that, its the ridiculous waste of money for something pointless. We already have NI numbers and P45 , this ID thing seems to be this government giving money to their palls just like the last one.

Ask yourselves this.
Do you want your town, city to be governed by a CEO who will run your region like a business?
