Stop asking and start demanding.
I signed this 12 hours ago and still have not had the confirmation email… so I suspect there are many more signatures to come,and it’s over 2mil now
Has anyone ever seen one where the answer wasn’t no?
I’d love to see a “Get rid of the petitions system, its sole purpose is to make people feel they have been listened to while you continue to ignore them” petition get enough votes to be debated.
Damn, the only successful petition is one that furthers the government’s surveillance goals.
How does a homeless person without a smartphone get a job? Is the government going to supply smartphones to everyone?
Or anyone who simply doesn’t want a smartphone. How do they get a job? Are you now forced to use a smartphone if you want to be a UK citizen?
The government has said it wants to ensure the scheme works for those who are not able to use a smartphone and will launch a consultation on how the service will be delivered later this year.
The new digital ID will be held on people’s phones, in a similar way to contactless payment cards or the NHS app.

Yeah, they have no clue what they’re doing. Maybe do the consultations and research before announcing your plan?
Unfortunately the main negative of this,
Is while smartphones make it easy to display. The data will be with the government. So not having a smart phone is easy to get around. Companies will likely be able to access the database and see your data.
UK unemployed having to pay for new gov ID to get a job. Is the real fucker.
This is the only thing giving me hope about the whole scheme-there seems to be nothing more than a headline or soundbite with no thought or infrastructure planning behind it.
Just past 2 million now
Could the same people also start and sign a petition to introduce a wealth tax and remove the income tax?
Ok now you KNOW they won’t accept that one
Can’t hurt to try and get some people to talk about it.
Fair enough
