As a form of ID in your day to day digital life - thats the fairly obvious direction.
Mandatory ID cards (Brit Card) to be announced tomorrow
- Thread starter diy_fun_uk
- Start date
Is that a yes or a no?
Is it more than 6 months since the offence?
If so you can cancel the course
Devon Cornwall used to have zero tolerance days 31 in a 30 and they'd want you on the course, even though the type approval wouldn't hold up for the evidence.
No it's recent. I'll take it on the chin, just happy not to have the points.

No - to your exact question
Do you think they will spend all this money for just another ID?
For those wishing to work ( legally) in the UK? Subbies have had all kinds of paperwork hoops to jump through over the years, so yes. No dramas.

I think they have the Nordic model in their sights.
You wot? There are sections of roads previously 70mph that have now been dropped to 17.5mph?
I can believe speed limits have been dropped but let's not get silly here.
The government requires is going to be linking this ID with a digital driving license. This has already been announced.
Why does the UK need digital IDs and what data will they include?

Alan Woodward, a professor and cybersecurity expert at the University of Surrey, said that if the data is also held on a vast database to allow for cross-referencing, “it’s painting a huge target on something to say ‘come and hack me’”.

I wonder which tech firm is all over this who also specialises in vast databases.

Unless you arriving by RNLI taxi service. Do not stop, go straight to 4 star hotel…
I doubt our UK passports will disappear because asylum seekers arrive here without theirs Mottie.

Most? This was specifically in response to being arrested and thrown in jail for not carrying identification papers.
By law at the moment, if you've done nothing wrong and the police have no reason to give to arrest you, you don't need to disclose who you are or what you are doing. Making it compulsory to carry ID possibly changes this. This is not a good thing. And it is not going to reduce immigration or illegal work, so the government are lying about the reason they want this.
