BBC - ID cards: an iCan briefing

The BBC has produced a pretty decent summary page of the issues surrounding the proposed UK ID card. I mean it's a load of crap to believe that a government IT project can be delivered on time, on budget, on target and with any degree of faith that it won;t grow into a festering wound. An all-party committee delivered a pretty damning report and the best Blunkett good extract from it was "Hey, they didn't say I was as evil as Satan - they obviously love the idea" (what they said was that he was "almost" as evil as Satan). OK, they didn't actually say that but you get my point.
