ID cards are a big subject in their own right, with the biggest *technical*,questions being what information they contain. For example a government gateway number does not show anything like a photo so it needs to be used as a key into a database which then raises the question who can access the database. Alternatively an ID does contain, for example, a photo so it is a "standalone" system and forgery becomes a problem. All of which is interesting but of minimal relevance to life Post-Brexit. I hear few comments from leave supporters of the to and fro -ing of the past few days.
