The Director of the London School of Economics has written to the Times over the government's ill-informed condemnation of the LSE report on the proposed ID system.
"It is unfortunate that, on an issue where the civil liberties concerns are so serious, the Government should have chosen to adopt a bullying approach to critics whose prime motivation was to devise a scheme which might work, at an acceptable cost."
It's good to see a senior education executive standing up for high quality independent academic research and the integrity of the academics that have carried it out. Well done Howard Davies and the LSE’s Governing Council who have also given the people involved their full support.
