] Unless, of course, any splinter group of the Labour party is stupid to call itself 'National Socialists'. It really wouldn't surprise me. |

During WW2 there were some Scottish Nationalists who tried to use the UK being attacked as an argument for independence and wanted to enter an alliance with Germany so they could destroy England together. Some documents about it were declassified a few years back.

I presented my drivers license to get my voting slips. The woman never even had a cursory glance at me and the licence to see if there was a match. Many years ago to buy a season ticket on the tube you had to have a photocard. I did my photo in one of those "Photo me" booths at the station and handed it over at the ticket office. The guy stuck it between 2 bits of plastic and handed it back. Alas the photo had still been wet and where he put in it the resulting mess made it look like I had green and blue open pus laden sores from my eyes downwards and not once did anyone over the next few years say it didn't look like me One of my fellow students at college never paid fares, he used to just flash his brother's library card at the ticket collectors at the gate as he went through he said the trick was to not look like you were anything than someone in a real hurry to get the next train and had the right pass |

Simultaneously release ticket inspectors for vegetable harvesting duties and catch minor fraudsters. |

And the answer to that one should answer wether they could catch a fraudster .  |

If I'd produced anything with a photo on it I would have been allowed to jump on buses and the tube without question |
