You've missed out name badges Keith. The easiest one to forge. JS
##we could tattoo everyone ......were was that done before ...i believe the idea of identification is good but .....it could be copied like anything else ...a fingerprint at the age of 12 or so would be suffice ....
the yanks take your thumbprints at the airport, no one objects there

In France my ID is my card mutual, (Health Card)it has my mug shot on it and my social security number on it. Advantage of that is when you go to see a doctor it is the first thing he asks you for which goes straight into his computer. At least he knows who he is treating. If memory serves me right in the UK you make an appointment either by phone or at the reception desk, only other ID check is a touch screen when you arrive at the surgery and type in your name and date of birth, no visual recognition as such. Innocent people should have no objections to carrying an ID document.
Since the influx of our Eastern European friends there is nothing that you cannot obtain,you name it they will give you it.
