Please, if you can, make your pledge at
![](/img/extlink.gif)
and pass on or promote this message/link to as many sympathetic people
and groups, mailing lists, bulletin boards and publications (why not
write a letter to your local paper?) as you can *without spamming*. To
spread the message further PledgeBank provide flyers and posters to
print out, and people can also pledge by texting 'pledge refuse' to
60022 [standard text rate]. N.B. if you prefer to keep your online
pledge private, simply uncheck the 'Show my name on this pledge' box
before signing.
Our first pledge and target is as follows:
"I will refuse to register for an ID card and donate £10 to a legal
defence fund but only if 10,000 other people will also make this same
pledge."
— Phil Booth, NO2ID National Coordinator
Polls have shown for some time that 3 - 4 million people across the UK
strongly oppose the Government's plans to introduce ID cards and a
National Identity Register. Were this many of us refuse to cooperate
then the scheme would be doomed to failure.
If the Government do manage to force through the ID cards legislation,
this pledge will not only demonstrate the level of solidarity amongst
opponents of the scheme - it will form the basis of a fighting fund* and support network for all those who refuse to comply.
NO2ID continues to campaign against the introduction of ID cards and the National Identity Register on all fronts, for more information on what you can do NOW, please visit

Thank you for your continued support, together we shall beat this.
Thanks also to mySociety for building the PledgeBank site - keep an eye out for future NO2ID pledges.
Phil Booth
*all monies pledged will be held in trust for use in defending those individuals who are prosecuted for resisting registration.
