Right - my point being they floated it not because it was a good idea but because they thought they had the political capital to get away with it. The Tories were too stupid to recognize political poison when it was staring them in the face. "Let's eliminate all banking privacy forever in the name of convenience" is a quintessentially Tory idea.
