Fingerprint scanners on the street

Posted by Petrie Hosken on March 05, 2010 at 22:33PM

Plus the Gadget Hour.

To start with I asked - Should we know all the details of pay and perks of all town hall staff earning more than 60 thousand pounds a year?  Is it any of our business? How much detail should we know?

 

The gadget guru was with me at 8 this evening to discuss all things technical and speak the language of geek - catch up on what we talked about in the Sunday Supplement section of the LBC website!

 

Finally I asked - Should police be able to check the identities of 'suspects' in the street using a portable finger-print scanner? Is this a way of buliding a database by stealth?
