Proceeding contribution from Michael Ellis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Documents Bill.
Identity Documents Bill
I thank the right hon. Gentleman for giving way and welcome you, Mr Deputy Speaker, to your position. Does the right hon. Gentleman realise that only a few days ago the head of the TUC, Brendan Barber, said that the scheme would have been an expensive folly and an unwelcome intrusion into people's private liberties and lives? Does he also know that the TUC head said that he welcomed and supported this Government's proposals to get rid of ID cards? Given Labour's current financial circumstances, is it wise to ignore paymasters in that way?
