Holyrood backs Scottish identity database 2


Libby Brooks reports in the Guardian that MSPs have voted narrowly in favour of plans by the SNP Scottish government for a new identity database.

A proposal by the Scottish Liberal Democrats to treat the proposals for the database as primary legislation, which would require them to be subject to full parliamentary scrutiny was rejected.  However, the Scottish government has agreed to wait for the results of the consultation on the proposed database before moving forward.

    So once this is in place , the argument will be “well Scotland have one and it hasn’t done any harm…” – despite massive evidence to the contrary – “…so why don’t we have one in England”

    Be ready, it’s coming
