The top ten more credible arguments for not carrying an ID card....
10 I left my ID card at home.
9 I have lost my ID card. Well, I think I have.
8 Actually, my ID card was stolen.
7 Well, it may have been stolen, but more likely my wallet fell
out of my pocket and slid under the seat of the car and right now
I just want to walk to the shop and buy a newspaper, and not have
to get on my hands and knees and root around amongst the soda cans
and empty Marlboro packets.
6 I am a vampire and the picture on my ID card is blank.
5 I have a split personality disorder and my other personality
has the ID card today.
4 I am not a criminal or a slave and I don't want to be treated
like I am one.
3 I have no pockets.
2 I have no hands.
and the number one reason for not carrying an ID card:
1 I don't want to.
All perfectly credible arguments for not carrying an ID card, a
Tesco card, a credit card, a mobile phone or anything else that you
don't want to. I've got no objection to ID cards and would probably
have one and carry it most times. But I don't want anyone telling
me that I *have* to carry it.
