Protest and Assent
It struck me recently, that only protest is ever really measured ... you never saw anyone demonstrating that the Gulf War was a good thing for example but the people saying it was a bad thing got loads of press because they were making a noise about it. This is fair enough, free speech is a good thing in my opinion but I've decided that the time has come to make a stand (however insignificant) to give assent and support to ideas which other people may be campaigning about.
If you feel as I do, please cut and paste this image ... if you could host it yourself that would be especially nice.

Now while I welcome discussion, I don't think that this is a good forum for it so if you want to discuss my politics at length I invite you to do so in person rather than here. Comments on the validity of positive assent however are welcomed (since I suspect that such a discussion will be less likely to be either as impassioned or as lengthy).

If they get rid of the need to send your birth certificate/passport off everytime you apply for something then brilliant
People say they'll cost too much money - I currently need to update my driving license and passport and it's going to cost me about £70 in all!
The only people that should lose out are criminals
So everyone's a winner

If political expression were not banned in my workplace, I'd have a bloody great 'pro-presumed consent' banner on my office wall though.

We should have a chat at some stage on both point.

I agree that ID cards (in principle) are a very good thing indeed and do nothing to limit our personal freedoms. I grew up in Holland and Belgium, though, where ID is something normal :)
Will do what you ask and post this myself.
