Excellent!

Here's a link (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/pilots-threaten-to-strike-over-id-cards-1023098.html) as well but it seems to be in most of the papers anyway.

I just sent an email to the ID card dept because I'm shored bitless tonight.
It went like this...


Can you explain how the proposed UK ID card will ultemetly be any different than the ID card scheme mentioned below.


The “Third Proclamation on Compulsory Identification Cards” ["3. Bekanntmachung über den Kennkartenzwang"] was issued on July 23, 1938. According to this new regulation, Jews were obliged to apply for an identification card before the end of the year. Starting on January 1, 1939, they were to present this card, without being asked, whenever they visited government offices or had dealings with authorities. In August 1938, the Reich Ministry of the Interior issued a list of officially approved "Jewish" forenames. According to the “Second Decree on the Execution of the Law regarding the Changing of Surnames and Forenames” ["Zweite Verordnung zur Durchführung des Gesetzes über die Änderung von Familiennamen und Vornamen"] of August 17, 1938, Jews whose names failed to appear on the government-approved list had to adopt either "Israel" or "Sara" as additional forenames. This decree also took effect on January 1, 1939. Below is a reproduction of the inside pages of a compulsory identification card for Jews.

I reserve the right to publish any and all replies from your office.

Sincerely

I doubt if the pilots of Chemtrail planes are in the Union.;)

But yes, this is excellent news. What's more other airline unions are planning to follow in BALPA's footsteps. This was in the news a few weeks ago: http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2008/oct/12/idcards
