Could it be that even your local take away holds all the relevant data on you in the next few years?

The way governments are going it is not an unthinkable premise. The latest wheeze by the government is to lose securely store all our personal records on a central database. Of course we all know how secure that will be. Of course it will be not long before your personal details will be sold on by unscrupulous employees who see a fast buck to be made.

Of course the government will have every last iota of how you live your life:

The data includes weight, cholesterol levels, body mass index, pulse rate, family health history, alcohol consumption and smoking status.

Diagnosis of everything from cancer to heart disease to mental illness would be covered. Family doctors will have to pass on dates of birth, postcodes and NHS numbers.
