Biometric ID cards are one thing; a national ID database which can do a reverse lookup, rather than just a validation, is another.

Ever heard of the phrase "need to know" ?

I have no problem with a card which could be validated as genuine and biometrically demonstrated to be mine, but then to say that my biometrics captured from anywhere could be fed into a national database and come up with my name is quite different.
