Indeed, as a suspicious character. A crime happens near your home -
a child vanishes. You have a record of having been stopped a number
of times so the police pop around for a chat. The neighbours see a
marked car outside your door - does you no harm does it?

There's often a police car outside our house. I don't think it's done us any
harm. The neighbours still think we're nutters but not criminals - not that
we give a tinker's what they think about us. While they're talking about us
they're leaving someone else alone :-) Any police record we have might well
have been stored but it doesn't affect us.

There is nowhere else in the world where such a draconian system as
being proposed for the UK is in use or even contemplated.

Evidence?
