ISO 10,000 Britons to refuse to register for UK ID cards

You may remember that the NO2ID, a British group fighting the UK national ID card, has previously raised the promise of 10,000 Britons to refuse to register for the cards, and a further promise of £1,000,000 from 20,000 Britons to fund their legal defense, all using the Pledgebank service.

Now they're looking for prmises of another 10,000 Britons to refuse to register for the card, at a critical junction for the debate over national ID cards here in the UK:

Following the dramatic success of NO2ID's original pledge (we asked for 10,000 and got over 11,300 refuseniks), Simon Davies – Chairman of NO2ID and veteran of successful ID card campaigns across the globe – has just launched another 'refuse to comply' pledge to demonstrate the sustained and growing opposition to the UK ID card scheme. Recent events in Parliament revealed that, far from being 'voluntary', registration will be compulsory for 80% of UK citizens from the point the Bill becomes law, and – despite a transparent attempt to distract MPs from the spiralling cost of the scheme – the Government's majority was slashed to its lowest level since the election at the vote which sent the Bill to the House of Lords.

The pledge can be signed online or by mobile phone, and it closes just after Christmas.
