David Blunkett STILL on the 'bring in ID cards' tip. Y'know, I'm now kind of thinking, let's bring in ID cards because Blunkett has been working so hard to ignore everyone and their grandmother saying "ID cards, they're pointless!" that if we get them, he'll have to shoot himself because there'll be nothing left for him to achieve. Even the Tories are against it, though to make sure no-one actually thinks it's because they've considered the issue and think it a gross violation of personal privacy they've made it clear that Blunkett's plain is dangerously fruity and liberal to them.
But I love this this bit: Mr Blunkett admitted he did not know how many illegal immigrants are currently in the UK, but said ensuring they do not work illegally or draw from public funds and services remains a priority.
He said the government is likely to remain in the dark over exact numbers until it introduces an enforceable identification system linked to a register of all immigrants in the country.
Wake up Great Britain! This man has just admitted he wants to spend millions of pounds of your money on a scheme when he has NO FUCKING IDEA whether it will help or not, or whether there's a problem in the first place! If this man became Prime Minister we could declare war on Belgium on the off-chance it solves famine in the third world! Let's all flush out toilets in unison next Thursday and see if that retroactively stops the Great Depression of the twentieth century!
