There have been talks of this in Australia, a few years ago, so far, as far as I know, nothing has come of it, but I think that they have plans to introduce it in the coming years.
I think it was going to have basically what Courtney ( if you don't mind me using your real name or anything) said the English version would have.

You can use my name
Yeah, the "Smart Card". I was reading about that, it didint sound as intrusive as this though, it was more of an access card wasnt it? It was going to replace a bunch of other cards and combine them all into one.
actually i don't think it's a bad idea. i have to give more personal information on some application-forms than i did for my id in germany.
You had to take retena scans for an application form? This is more than just an Id, you can't do anything without this. It isn't a good Idea. it's extremely intrusive. And the worst part is, imagine if they gigantic database was hacked or something. Every citizens personal information at someones disposal.

it has been prooevn that the recentish london bombings still wouldve happened even if the people had ID cards they are not a good idea because they will be able to see what we do, what we buy and all sorts of private stuff, i personaly will risk going to prison than carry or even buy a card,
Have similar schemes been proposed or adopted in other countries?
Yes. Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand have very similar card systems. China is moving rapidly in this direction with the development of a compulsory ID database and card system. However no common law country in the world has ever accepted the idea of a peace-time ID card. The Australian and New Zealand public have rejected similar proposals outright. Canada has never agreed to such a scheme. ID card proposals have always been rejected by the United States Congress. No European country has such a comprehensive or invasive card system.
Ok, read that Bold part, then this.
"A difficulty will occur with travel to the United States if we do not align what we are doing with the changes that are taking place around us... Because the United States is considering new ways of accrediting identification,"
Yeah, but The United States never accepted plans like that because they are crazy and intrusive. This is a scary Issue, I can't believe I didnt know about this sooner!
It's a lie.
The US is taking it a step further.
In the US you won't even have privacy even if you're by yourself.
In 2008 It will be required by the state to include in EVERY persons drivers license a tracking device, soon after we will all be required to hold ID cards, and not long after that you will have all of your information stored in the US human bank...your name, money, literally EVERY part of you except the physical will be there. These same things will be applied in England and every other country as well.

Stuff like that's only scary if you let it be.
The only way to make it not scary, is to not let it happen.
You don't let it happen by resisting no matter what and trying to educate and encourage others to do the same.
The advantage that the US & England and most countries have over some others, these things haven't been put in place and therefore they don't have to be.

we have problems like that in the USA too...
my friend knows this lady who marryed this guy from south
africa and when she was pregnent and having the
cramps he went to the drug store to get her some
pain killers and this guy asked him to show his drivers
lisences and he was like "i dont have it with me i did not
drive here i just road the bus up here to get my wife
some pian killers beacuase she is pregnent and she
is not felling good!"
then they thought he was like a terrorest
or something and they made him go home to south africa
without a fair trial or anything! and they wouldnt let him
go back to usa for like a 15 mouths! and his wife had to
have the baby without him!
and they did that just beacuase he didnt have a ID!
if you don't mind me using your real name or anything) said the English version would have.
