You don't get it do you? If you're working illegally, you're not showing ID. So how is ID going to help stop illegal working?Is that good though? Not paying tax means someone else needs to pay more to make up the difference
So, it's already the 7th most popular petition (albeit miles behind the don't brexit one):
If everyone can just sign this petition and then say "signed" so we can really fuck @Embattle off, if nothing else.

Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards
We demand that the UK Government immediately commits to not introducing a digital ID cards. There are reports that this is being looked at.petition.parliament.uk
I mean, Starmer doesn't mind starving babies, so I doubt he'll listen to the will of the people. But it's worth it for the Emb angle alone![]()
The only people who will benefit from this shitshow are the people who will make bucketloads of fake IDs and sell them for a tenner down the pub. Also due to the red tape it will bring employers more will go for paying cash in hand. Cash in hand has always been a thing and always will be a thing.You don't get it do you? If you're working illegally, you're not showing ID. So how is ID going to help stop illegal working?
Employers who are paying workers in cash aren't checking for ID. The workers are off their books - and both the employers and workers want it that way.
Tell me. How does having even more ID stop that?
How does Google, Meta and Apple know my ID is real and not forged? They only have a name/address,credit card data, again not proof of ID.So, less than 3% of the population have signed a petition. No doubt, a good majority of those signing have already given their data to Google, Meta, Apple and ironically the government already. Keep trying.

Starmer asks Conservative peer to write planning bill to block judicial reviews
Exclusive: One option could be to leave treaty that allows legal claims against projects such as Heathrow expansionwww.theguardian.com
Pretty much turns us into China from an environmental planning perspective.
It was. But even I didn't expect Labour to be the party that fucks over our environmental legislation. Especially when they explicitly committed to strengthening our environmental protections.Wasn't that the point of Brexit? Or one of them anyway. Don't see how it makes much difference which party does it, it was inevitable.
But he's not above calling us anyone who thinks mass immigration has failed the working classes racist I see:

You're talking about a completely different subject here @Gwadien. The topic at hand is legal migration. Please stay on-topic.You mean the party that has fully taken the 'migrant crisis' as their number one policy and are doing loads of shit to 'deal' with it whilst the results will and always will be meh
