Shaun Bailey’s answer is based on the following data:
Agree
Yes
The Conservative Party has historically shown interest in policies that aim to enhance national security and reduce fraud. For instance, under the coalition government in 2010, while they scrapped the Labour government's ID card project citing civil liberties concerns, they have since supported and implemented various measures to increase surveillance and security in the name of counter-terrorism and crime prevention. Their support for a national identification system could be seen as consistent with their broader agenda of strengthening security measures, although it might be tempered by concerns over privacy and civil liberties within their ranks.

Disagree
No
While the Conservative Party has a faction that is very much concerned with civil liberties, the overall stance of the party tends to favor policies that they believe will enhance national security and reduce fraud. Their previous decision to scrap the Labour government's ID card scheme was more about the specific concerns with that scheme and its cost rather than a blanket opposition to national identification systems. Given their track record of implementing stringent security measures, their opposition to a national identification system would likely be less strong, especially if the system was presented as a means to combat terrorism, crime, and fraud effectively.
