Firstly;
An awful lot of Americans posting here for some reason. I would have thought that the British members would be more inclined to leave a comment here, and not for the thread to be filled with hawking the same arguments I have read elsewhere;
Anyway...
Its going to come into effect without our consent anyway, so why the sham of due diligence? The Police State is already here, we just don’t know it yet.
Given our (UK) government’s inability to do anything right, what a good idea to put all of this info into one place, where it can either be sold on by the state or just stolen by a bribed or otherwise corrupt employee and passed on to organised crime.
*slow hand clap*
Either way, given that you can be arrested under purportedly “Anti-Terrorism” legislation nowadays for a/ shouting “rubbish!” at the home secretary at a party conference or b/ having a disabled child that isn’t the same colour as you, this would be abused to hell and back the second it became available to the state.
