I AM happy to inform Mr Scott (SA, September 14) that the next Conservative Government will scrap ID cards and the National Identity Register.
Although other EU and non- EU countries have ID cards, none have attempted to create an Identity Register, which begs this question why on earth are we doing it? The most effective way in which Swindon residents can vote to end the nonsense of ID cards will be to vote Conservative at the next election.

Conservative Parliamentary Candidate, South Swindon.
