This bulletin is asking for opinions on the pros and cons of state-issued digital ID. It clearly identifies the key uses as reducing crime, controlling immigration, and enforcing labour law. These are most consistently identified by UK voters as the most important issues facing the country. Another important issue is keeping taxes low and reducing headcount in government departments.
So I would hazard a wild guess that someone has put two and two together and come up with a low cost technology driven solution to satisfy the divergent demands of the electorate. Thus is what tends to happen in democracies 🤔
