Its becoming a habit is this disc losing malarky. The govenment and its subbies need to get a grip as in these uncetain times info held on the discs will be worth a lot to some unscrueplious cus. Putting peoples lives and lively at risk due to incompitence is unacceptable. Sadlly it allso shows how unsafe the technology we have can be when storing and transfering data.

As for someone losing their job well it will be a scape goat that cops it not the real culprits ie those with power that decide its the cheapest way to do a job.

And some of you want to trust this shower with a national ID card scheme?

You need your heads examining if you vote for the scheme

are we actualy going to get to vote on it? , i only ask because this govenment didnt even let us vote for our current prime minister

nope, no referendum, my reference for vote was aimed at those who think its a good idea and something we should be voting our goverment back in for.

Just hand over your £150/head and we'll lose all your data in one swoop

Thanks for doing business with HMG!

This government has as much chance of getting back in as I have of winning a beauty contest. They love going on about terror threats and security of the nation but seem to have a nak of putting us at risk better than any other set of individuals. Its a very poor do that those charged by us with our safety make Mr Magoo, Wiley Coyote Mr Bean Tom from Tom n Jerry but to name a few look very poor at bungling things.
