The best 404 I'll ever see....

Just googled "National Identity Cards" and the first hit was the link above. That the link returned a 404 error (page cannot be found) has made my week.

The Identity and Passport Service's website has the following announcement on the ID card scheme:

Identity cards

Both Parties that now form the new Government stated in their manifestos that they will cancel Identity Cards and the National Identity Register. We will announce in due course how this will be achieved. Applications can continue to be made for ID cards but we would advise anyone thinking of applying to wait for further announcements.

Until Parliament agrees otherwise, identity cards remain valid and as such can still be used as an identity document and for travel within Europe. We will update you with further information as soon as we have it.
