| Message | Forcing citizens to carry government issued ID cards is intrusive and expensive. There is no evidence to suggest that they are effective in combating crime. Countries which have ID cards do not have lower rates of crime nor do those which introduce ID cards see a reduction in crime rates. ID cards have no effect on identity fraud, which occurs mostly online, and do not uncover the intent of terrorists or those with terrorist designs. |
