thelibraniniquityStudents will be "blackmailed" into holding identity cards in order to apply for student loans...
These cards aren't compulsory for any other section of the British population. As far as I'm aware, the proposals for their introduction haven't even been pushed through Parliament yet.
Although, thinking of the so-called "British population" and the existing stance on students, can we take this to mean that the government's proposals will only affect students in England and Wales (see: top up fees etc.), leaving the Scottish and Northern Irish somehow exempt. I hope I am jumping the gun in this assumption, but somehow this just does not bode well at all.
We'll see, though. We will definitely see.
