As predicted by El Reg here the Government looks set to ditch its unpopular ID card legislation if Tony Blair calls an election today.
Blair is widely expected to ask the Queen to dissolve Parliament today - the trigger for a General Election on 5 May. But this means he must sacrifice several Bills currently before the House. To have any chance of getting through before the election, legislation needs cross party support.
