POPSOn-Street Fingerprint Checks Plan 7.5m people on the police national biometric database I though they said they weren't building a national database? Clearly concerned about a public backlash against the plan, officials stress that the government is not building up a single central database containing personal information of everyone in the country. http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/90693085-8F9F-4EBA-8307-9EE5039A57BB/ The initial phase of the the scheme is expected to cost police forces £30-£40m. And who pays the police? .:roll:

POPSHow to Skip the Airport Security Line There's an easy solution to the problem of long security lines: pay to join a shorter queue. I've clipped about this before, but this author raises some interesting points about "registered traveler" programs. For a $100 fee and a $28 TSA background check, these programs give frequent travelers a fingerprint or iris image that allows you to join an expedited security line. The author argues that, "What looks to one person like flexibility looks to another like bribing your way through the system." What do you think?

POPSSchools Now Requiring Thumb-scans for Lunch Americans are being processed like cattle or merchandise through a checkout stand. Word of advice: REBEL against it. Don't do whatever "Simon Saiz". It's called in psychology "conditioning", in this case the result is food (reward). (It's like the experimental chicken pecking at the colored light until it dispenses food.) The creeping police state and waste of tax payers money. The "terrorism" and "security" merchandisers are pushing this techno-tyranny on your local governments, including schools. Now "convenience" is being used to sell all kinds of biometric passes. Americans are being "trained" (from childhood up) to passively accept all this and labeled "paranoid" if they protest, but they keep expanding it, and none of this is cheap. It's not necessary. It's a waste of taxpayers money. It's a means of control. They want to expand it. Refuse to do anything that collects information on you, particularly your own body.

POPSBiometric ID for Britain I can see this being rolled out across europe. I know other countries have such technology in place, but in a purely voluntary basis. This scheme is not. Already the Irish govt is talking about this. Will britain be the guinea pig for the rest of the world? remember, britain is the most overtly surveilled country on the planet. So social conditioning has been hard at work to bring its population to the level whereby they will consent to this. Naturally there will be a controlled opposition to reign in any true opposition to this plan. Another scenario is everybody will have the ID card, but identity theft will be rampant and loads of people will be affected. And sure enough they will call on their loverly govt to provide a solution. (this entire process can be called "engineering consent" an old process) I'll pop your next post if you can tell me what that solution will be? :)

POPSNew Airport Strategy I say we should all speak up and denounce this evil idea. If this takes place it won't be long, mark my words, before the "special" passenger sitting beside you will be smuggling in dreaded nail clippers and bottles of purloined motel shampoo.
