Tony Blair’s book: God, public services and being a liberal
Nicholas Watt writes in the Guardian about Tony Blair’s memoir:
Blair dismisses objections to ID cards on civil liberties grounds as “absurd”. The cards were necessary; they would help deal with illegal immigration and aid transactions that were the “warp and woof” of life. “I could envisage that it might take time. The civil liberties argument I thought a little absurd – many well-functioning democracies have identity cards and the information stored [on them] is less than most supermarkets have.”

Slimy little bastard – I hope he dies of an alcohol-related disease – painfully.

The pity of it is, the slimy little rat believes his own lies-and many gullible people believe them too.

Trouble is his ID cards were to be backed by a database all supermarkets would envy.
Hasn’t changed has he?

Blair dismisses objections to ID cards on civil liberties grounds as “absurd”
Complacent, rich, middle class airhead is indifferent to black people being racially harrassed to show ID Cards. So what else is new? Bears shit in the woods?

Blair is a terrible liar — I hate his guts. We all know there were and are technical problems a mile wide in developing the id cards. Blair likes to argue in little slogans.
