Tiny Victories
The government has been defeated in the Lords as peers said the controversial ID cards scheme could not go ahead until its full costs were revealed.
Ministers say it will cost £584m a year to issue cards but say revealing costings for the full scheme could make it harder to get a good value deal.
So, when the Government announced the cost of the ID card to be lower than the LSE figure that was because they were basically lying?
