SIR: May we welcome the opposition by all three main local government bodies to the expensive imposition of ID cards.
However, to kill this dead we need local government to make it clear it will not utilise or implement these proposals.
We in the Liberal Party are urging all our councillors to support a campaign of boycotting ID cards.
We reject a system whereby people will be forced to carry cards with personalised information carried by SMART card technology which they cannot check or challenge.
P Burke,
Manchester Liberal Party
Cllr Steve Radford
North West Liberal Party
