if u live in the uk throw your f**kin rights away to privacy. they didn't ask or consult the peoples who's data will be made public. we've already been electronically tagged by all our lives being compurerised, now these government dork MP's are giving up our civil liberties with our school records. these people are a bunch of idiots who didn't do well at school, so became MP's. Explains everything. they couldn't keep our data safe, so now they're throwing it away for free. This is rich from a failing government who are out of touch with the data privacy and security of our once great britian. The sooner gordon brown is out the door the better i say, its been mistake after mistake with him in the chair. we need a new government in power who takes our data privacy seriously instead of throwing it out there for all to read.
