Why?

We had them in WWII and did no harm.

1) In 1949 they didn't have the technology to reproduce them as
easily as these will be reproduced, making them utterly useless -
if
they are not total, IE 100% of people using them, they are a waste
of
time at combatting the crimes they are deigned to curtail.

Agreed: it'll just introduce a whole new crime of mugging people just
to get their ID cards to drop at the scene of the bombing.

2) Can you trust this government to get it right? - can you trust
them not to waste billions of pounds every year for maybe a decade
upon something that will fall by the wayside like the CSA,
Millenium
Dome and umpteen other white elephants?

No, I don't; but let's not forget that the CSA and the Damn Dome were
among the menagerie of white elephants they inherited from the other
lot.
