Support for ID cards a costly mistake - Featherstone

9.33.09pm BST (GMT +0100) Sun 6th Aug 2006

Lynne Featherstone continues the fight against ID Cards

Commenting on Tony Blair's announcement that identity cards will form a 'major plank' of the Labour Party manifesto at the next General Election, Liberal Democrat Home Affairs Spokesperson, Lynne Featherstone MP said:

"The Prime Minister seems determined to push ahead with identity cards despite the growing body of opinion warning against their implementation.

"Identity cards will cost a fortune and won't stop terrorism or fraud. If Tony Blair wants to nail his legacy to ID cards then it will be a suitable end to his faltering premiership."
