Surely a sample of 1000, whether in or out of DB's office, which included
anyone who knew anything about data protection would be most
unrepresentative - unless you included Lucy the Dog! Anyway a member of a
group of circa 600 (us) would have a 0.0001% chance of being surveyed -
even on a Friday. Anyone for snowballs in hell? ;)

that the majority are now pro- ID card.

views? I'm not asking what answers you gave, that's your business, just
interested in how representative these 1000 were. Maybe they just asked
around in David Blunkett's office and called it a survey?
