No2ID refuseniks host comedy extravaganzaThere's nothing funny about HitlerPublished Friday 29th September 2006 13:15 GMT No2ID - the folks who've done a sterling job pointing out the folly of the government's increasingly tottering ID card scheme - are hosting a comedy fundraiser this weekend. In rare shameless plug mode, Vulture Central points you here to the No2ID website for booking information. It'll mark the end of a busy week for No2ID. On the Monday, the first day of the Labour part conference, their full-page ads in the national papers depicting Tony Blair with a barcode Hitler moustache attracted blustering indignation from some parliamentarians...and a lot of publicity around the issue. Sunday's line up in full: * Dara O' Briain (Mock the Week) * Paul Sinha (Perrier award nominee 2006) * Josie Long (Perrier best newcomer 2006) * Kevin Eldon (Brass Eye, I'm Alan Partridge) * Wil Hodgson (Perrier best newcomer 2004) * Gary Le Strange (Perrier best newcomer 2003) * Andrew O`Neill * Janie Phayre * Lucy Porter * Ben Norris * with MC Daniel Kitson All funny boys and girls, so it should be a good night down at the Hackney Empire, east London, whether you give a flying fig about ID cards or not. ®
