Poll shows big drop in support for ID cards

[dave502d]

Plans to introduce identity cards have suffered a serious setback with the publication of a poll which discovered rising public hostility to the scheme.

The number of voters backing the move has slumped from more than 80 per cent to 55 per cent in six months, according to the survey of 1,010 voters by ICM Research released yesterday. The number of opponents has more than doubled to 43 per cent.

The rebuff came two weeks after the Government reintroduced the ID Cards Bill, which it had to put aside as time ran out before the last election.

Either way, the ID idea is a bad thing.
