Mandatory ID cards (Brit Card) to be announced tomorrow

[IT Minion]

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.

We're not talking about that are we.

For a start it's a digital ID so you don't need to carry it. Nor has anyone said that you'd have to provide it when requested.

And again, most countries in the rold do require you to carry ID i believe. France for example requires it AFAIK.

I doubt our UK passports will disappear because asylum seekers arrive here without theirs Mottie.

Is that what you believe?

If they don’t need them, why do we?

USA too.

You are advised to keep your passport on you, or other ID if not. I've never been stopped and asked to produce it, but I wouldn't want to try it either.

So that we can travel abroad and enter other countries. Didn’t you know?

I doubt they find the ink space on the average UK chav.

 

[Notch7]

We currently have these marauding Farage protestors, med of fighting age, we don’t know who they or where they come from.
Digital,ID would identify them quickly and show up all their domestic violence and petty criminal convictions.

I guess it’s why the right object to it so much

 

[motorbiking]

People object to a flawed ID system which will be a target for criminals and cost billions. Notch thinks they are hiding something. Righto
