This isn't going to happen - there is enough resistance to this kind of infringement of civil liberties to
prevent it from happening. If it ever becomes law, then I'll leave the UK permanently.....and NOT because I have any crimes behind me that I don't want discovered!

Where's the resistance about the surveillance cameras placed at every street corner and public gathering spot all in the name of "curbing crime"?

What about the legal penalties (imprisonment), for not divulging ones PGP key to government officials (MI5)?

National security? Crime? Emotionalism? Disarmament?

Your citizens have willingly accepted compliance based on the above reasons. What makes you think a DNA database
would be any different? They already disarmed the public and they were willing to accept it.

England is a country of sheeple willing to accept whatever the government tells them is in their best interest.

INGSOC is not that far from your distant future. Possibly in our future too. At least here there's a willingness to question and effectively fight against it.
