I’m appalled that the Government has decided to make the people of Greater Manchester the guinea pigs for their barmy ID Card scheme.
Local residents in Salford are feeling the financial pinch and the last thing they need is to fork out a further £60 on an ID card. Nationally, in these times of economic difficulty and with debt spiralling to record levels, the £5bn cost of ID cards is money we simply cannot afford to spend.
I’m delighted that Chris Grayling, Shadow Home Secretary, has renewed the Conservative commitment to abolishing Labour’s unwanted, expensive farce of an ID Card scheme, whilst bringing in effective measures like a national border police force to keep the country safe.
