What are you feelings about the push towards adoption of full digital ID ?

By full digital ID, I mean a government issued/managed ID that gets used for *everything* and eventually will replace all sorts of seperate licenses, endorsements, etc. for access to government services at local, state, federal and even international levels.

ie. you won't have a physical license card for anything, even for accessing your banking, and the only form of 'identification' will be an electronic record linked maybe to biometrics or similar which will require you to carry an authorised 'smart device' everywhere you go if you can't do the biometrics to 'authenticate' yourself with.

This is the 'third pillar' of what the UN and WEF are pushing for alongside fully digital currency systems (CBDC - with no physical currency), and social credit scoring systems.

The UK is proposing digital ID to monitor workers. This is in direct response to French complaints that our low regulation labour market is a strong attraction to irregular migrants.

Our data security laws are among the strictest in the world. If passed, the digital ID will be used for this purpose alone.

I would support a more comprehensive ID system, but right now the proposal is simply to clamp down on black market employment that may be encouraging large numbers of migrants to attempt a risky crossing of the English Channel.

@SunshineGirl You swallowed the bait. It's not and never is about immigration control - it's about monitoring/control of *everyone* and part of the push for globalisation of everything via the three-pillars the WEF is pushing for.

- Full digital ID
- Social credit scoring
- CBDC (Central Bank Digtal Currency)

ie. the end of more personal freedoms including the right to choose to pay with cash plus your right to control information about how you use your money along with your right to work (have a job), your right to travel, your right to own a home, your right to own personal transportation (ie. cars), along with where you can live and how you can live, where you are allowed to go just in your local region, etc.

The WEF 'grooms' politicians through it's 'Young Global Leaders' program into becoming globalist pawns because financial greed trumps everything else in politics and business. If you need just one example, look straight at Donald Trump.

@zonavar68 Spend six months working in UK government (I was a civil servant for five years) and you will understand that it would be a minor miracle if a comprehensive database of employees was launched, never mind control of banking and personal property.

Incidentally, a major barrier to economic growth is lack of geographical mobility. How does restricting peoples' freedom of movement square with globalist greed?
