Mission creep already started - they want to have 13 year old kids to have it too.

On this I support Farage. Put him in prison.
No doubt he'll find some excuse to accept the imposition of an ID.
I won't need one, so I'll not be going to prison.

 

[fillyboy]

I won't need one,

One?

 

[noseall]

Have they announced it yet?

 

[Highway Man]

I don't care one way or the other. Can't see what difference a digital ID would make to my life. I have various forms of ID now that this is simply just another.

 

[aveatry]

Its something else that wasn’t in the manifesto either

 

[Knave of Hearts]

One?

Of course one. How many do you think I need?

I assume it's possible to change some details from time to time.

Only for those seeking employment

Only for those seeking employment

Illegal aliens won't be able to work.
Does that mean they'll be destitute?
Or resort to crime?

Multiple forms of ID good. One mandatory government ID replacing all and being a massive target for fraud. Bad.

It cannot do any harm,

Surely that depends on who& why they are using that information; information is power, it will only be the plebs who need to carry the cards.

Even without the subject of mandatory ID, it's almost like the ECHR - in its primary function of protecting individuals from abuses by "the state" - is a good idea after all

And some folk could not care less. Ill put it with my Tesco club-card.

I think it's only MBK having a hissy fit about it.

Nothing to see here, move on.
