Revolt looms in ID cards debate

Riiiight. In an article talking about back-bench revolts against the UK ID card scheme, new Home Secretary Chalres Clarke utters this gem: '[the schem is a] profoundly civil libertarian measure because it promotes the most fundamental civil liberty in our society - which is the right to live free from fear crime and fear.'
And fear! Don't forget fear! Are you afraid yet? Grrr! Terrorists! Grr!
