I don't know how many of you in here are from the UK.
But this is a government run petition for those with British nationality to sign.

The government are thinking of implimenting the need for ID cards to take a photograph in public, probably because of the increase in ****** think this is rediculous. I once took a picture of a chained bike that had its front wheel stolen because I found it humerous. I shouldn't need an ID card for this.

And taking a picture of children playing isn't necessarily ****** driven. Playing children can be a beautiful sight to those who see it. If a ****** is going to take a photograph of your child, the need for an ID card isn't going to stop him/her. Only you can do that.

If you have British nationality and agree, then please take the time to sign the petition.

If you disagree, feel free to air your feelings. But there is no need for flaming. Okay?

Is it me, or is Britain looking more and more like the dystopian world portrayed in 1984? Not just from this, but other things about Britain I've read recently, like the two-way traffic cameras that tell bikers to get off in a pedestrian zone, and the like. Again, no enforcement.
