That’s the problem with the ID card idea, it doesn’t solve a problem. Obviously it proves who you are, but there are so many other documents that are already needed that also do that there’s no point.

If we got rid of driving licences and just had an ID card that everyone had, and then when you got a licence it just got added as information onto the card, then they would have a point. But that isn’t what they’re proposing, they’re proposing a second card that does the exact same job as the driving licence that I’m already required to carry.
