Highlights
  • The government markets digital IDs as benefiting ordinary citizens by simplifying service access while tightening border controls.
  • This would stop those with no right to be here from being able to find work, curbing their prospect of earning money, one of the key pull factors for people who come to the UK illegally.
  • Sir Keir Starmer has said. 'That is why today I am announcing this Government will make a new, free of charge, digital ID mandatory for the right to work by the end of this Parliament. Let me spell it out, you will not be able to work in the United Kingdom if you do not have digital ID.'
