Brussels to launch legislation review aiming at making e-identities for EU citizens

]Bilderberger Neelie Kroes, the EU’s Digital Agenda Commissioner is set to launch a substantial review of rules governing personal documents with the aim of making electronic identities take off across the EU. But the proposal faces likely opposition from civil rights groups and member states where identity cards do not exist".

Like there was ever any possibility that you would vote Yes on anything put forward by the EU RTDH.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the referendum. At least have the decency to respect democracy and vote on the actual issue rather than some invented grand conspiracy in your head.

I was too young to vote in 1973, no doubt I would have voted NO on it. My old man always quoted DeValera warning about the potential threat of EU power over our sovereignty

We should also learn from our history books.

It comes from Brussels - Default setting is 'No', even if it's useful.

Personally I'm hoping for biochips and barcode tattoos.

I was unaware that this was being voted on next week. Those yes campaigners would have you believe it was something to do with getting are budget deficit in order or some such nonsense. Thank god we have you to steer us in the right path.

You just make your self sound ridiculous and like someone wears a till foil hat when you come out with this bullsh1t, you know that, yeah?

I wouldn't be so quick to quote DeValera as a shining beacon of freedom and righteousness.

He would have been more than happy to isolate Ireland as a satellite state of the Vatican, ruled by the Pope.

And all those YES votes and those promises that went with them.

BTW Where are all those *****g Jobs?

The EU has only one thing on its agenda and that is to feather its own nest, take control of the masses with microchips and dictate.
