As Margaret Thatcher once said: ‘No! No! No!’
She was talking about the EU not the imposition of identity cards but it is definitely the sort of totalitarian nonsense she would have derided as offensive to any idea that we live in a free country.
I know all the arguments about how we have to identify ourselves in a thousand different ways already so why not consolidate it in one mobile phone app supplied by The State?
But we are still at liberty to leave home without being obliged to prove who we are to any interfering secret police person who happens to take a dislike to us.
ID cards will do absolutely nothing to affect the immigration crisis or our population explosion. They will just add yet another layer of bureaucracy, State interference and busybody Starmer-knows-best to our already over-regulated lives.
And the idea it will only be imposed on people who work is complete nonsense. If we have any interaction with the State (using the NHS, paying taxes, driving a car, applying for a passport) an ID card will be unavoidable.
And once all that stuff is stored away somewhere on the internet, how long before China, Russia, scammers, fraudsters and shysters are using it to destroy our lives, our livelihoods and, quite probably, our country?
