UK Government planning a giant travel database

[threaded]

Got any contact details? I know that they seem to be eating "Technical Architects" at an amazing rate. seems every 6 weeks someone calls me about that place then moans about not having an SC...

Just say you've got one.

Just say you've got one.

Or say that you're an illegal immigrant so you don't need one.

Who let him take a car on Eurostar? How did he get the car through the doors?

Was it a small fold up car?

In my experience they will scan your passport on the way out, and on the way in, so obviously that information is being stored somewhere.

OK, it was Eurotunnel not Eurostar. How was I to know? I didn't make the booking, just tagged along at the last minute (which was the point of the thread really).

Isn't a Giant Travel Database Sizeist ?

A "Giant Travel Database" would be sizeist, but a "giant travel database" wouldn't be. I think.

It's probably mostly a matter of trying to keep the Yanks happy, given this:

CIA warns Barack Obama that British terrorists are the biggest threat to the US

Aha, I think you might be onto something there.

Person table, journey table, location table.

They will spend millions on this.

I love new labour.

[Board Game Geek]

Aha, I get it.

We are all terrorists, in the eyes of the government.

Now, everything begins to make sense.
