Steve Walker formulated on Saturday :
I am happy for my details (as in passport/driving licence) to be on record
and to be available to the police to confirm my identity if I am stopped for
any reason, but do not want to have an ID card that I have to carry. It is
quite common for me to be doing some DIY then rush out to my parents to
borrow something or to the shops to pick up a click and collect item, without
changing my clothes or picking up cards and things that I would rather not
have in my pocket when crawling under the car or similar.

I never leave my own property, without those things - I feel naked
without my wallet, but why would we have to proove who we are, anymore
than we do now, with driving licence? We don't have to carry it even
when driving - so I doubt they would expect us to always have the ID
with us. The point, for those majority who did have their ID with them
- it makes it easy to confirm who they are and be on their way.
