That's what I'm suggesting. Do away with all the many and varied ways of 
proving your identity (I saw a poster today listing at least two dozen 
different things that might count) and your address, and have one ID 
card. Similarly, have *one* "account" where your earnings, pension 
contributions and NI contributions are centrally tallied.
