Dr Finch's research leads her to doubt that any scheme for national ID
cards will work, even if it is backed up by biometric data such as eye scans because the criminals will simply adapt their strategies to try to get
around the hurdle.

"The more people rely on the production of a particular piece of identification to verify identity, the less vigilance people will exercise themselves - that's the problem. If there are ID cards we will trust them to be unassailable." '
