This guy is such a douche. He was the one pushing for British people (of which I am one) to all carry I.D. cards which carry fingerprints and retina scans. ALso you are not just issued them, they would cost (last time I checked) about £200. The good news is they would be optional. The bad news is, you would need one to work, drive a car or leave the country. Also when I went to university it cost about £1000 a year, so 3 grand-ish total. About 2 years after it jumped to about £20,000, and who even knows what it’s at now. That was Blunkett’s fault too. I don’t know why he’s talking out of his hand in this cartoon.

This was outside the Staples in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I live there now. In Edmonton, not the Staples.
This was one of the first mildly irritating camera store customers I encountered. Little did I know of the horrors to come over the years, such as “I am mad because I bought this camera at Best Buy and I can’t return it at a completely unrelated store” guy, and “I’m going to sue you because somebody threw out the over-exposed leader on the beginning of my film that didn’t have any photos on it anyway” woman. The latter, incidentally, complained to the Blacks Photo head office and got $50. So remember if you have a grievance, Blacks Photo will fold like a card table.
The people in this cartoon are, L-R: My sister Charlotte, Me, My friend Sam. I don’t know why we were drinking on a Monday.
