Now I'm scared

TheCatWoman

Starmer has announced that he's introducing digital ID cards and as yet theres no alterantive for those of us with no smart phones, althought "they're going to consult" on it, who with or how we don't know. But quite frankly this news has me really scared, terriied, I'm shaking and may have to take some anti-anxiety meds. 

I can see a situation where my Mum, me and a few of our neighbours are going to be illegal in our own country and unable to access services.

  • It's quite silly to depend on smartphones for ID, which is why I use my passport instead. What about those who don’t have a smartphone? If someone loses their phone or it gets stolen, they face serious inconvenience without a backup form of ID. We need to think about everyone's needs in our digital world.

    I've got a friend who's engaged to an Australian,

    Another to an Irish guy

    And another one who is married to an Irish guy.
