Interesting how there's no explanation of WHY digital would be better than analogue, how it would tackle illegal employment or stop cash payments etc. I think they just want to be able to outsource another chunk of the state to a giant foreign conglomerate

Its always a brand new system with a massive scope as well so that it costs an arm and two legs, and is so over complicated it never gets finished.
Meanwhile we already have a universal voluntary ID system that half of all adults already own and the department that is responsible for it, does it on a small profit.
If its just about ID then get the DVLA to start issuing non driving licenses in a different colour and speed up their digital role out.

I'd welcome digital IDs, not on the immigration front, but on the convenience of a) having ID accessible without a wallet, and b) not needing to use a passport or driving licence for ID when some people can't get a driving licence and don't want to have to carry the passport for buying alcohol for example

It's funny how they go from criticising China to trying to replicate China. The only difference is, we're not as honest about it.
Literally true. Also with internet censorship as well.
And the desire for a backdoor into every single encrypted transmission on the internet. Just for the good guys though, and only so they can check you're not a paedo, so that's alright.
