Please give us your name, address and telephone numbers.

Please could you also post your entire medical history.

If you refuse any of the above you clearly have something to hide. Does having private information make you a terrorist?
Apart from sexual position the all that stuff is already on file somewhere the Govt can find out that and more if they have the inclination because they are ,well the government.

ID cards wont alter that one iota.

There's also nothing to stop the government expanding/changing the use of the database in future. It's so wide open to abuse and controlling the population it's almost beyond belief.
So where are they currently abusing the millions already on the police national computer? Where are all the abuses of the people currently on the DNA database?

You are paranoid

If anything, it will make it worse - ID cards and the information on the National Identity Register will be a prime target for criminals.
It takes a pretty clever criminal to break into the database. At the moment pretty much anyone with half a brain can take your identity.

It wont stop identity theft in total but it will cut out 99.999%
