Before the election I was approached by a bubbly young woman who tried to persuade me to vote Labour: "No thanks, last time I did that they tried to introduce ID cards", "But that's not in our manifesto" she replied, "It wasn't the last time I voted for them either".

It gives me no pleasure to be right on this.

It was introduced by the Tories, supported by both parties, and you live in a place with FPTP voting. Not voting for labour isn’t going to help anything except give more power to the others who are worse.
