An Open Letter to Keir Starmer and his Marxist Government. Dear Mr.Starmer, I am writing in response to the Government’s consultation on the proposed UK Digital Identity system. Having read the full consultation document in detail, I would like to begin by congratulating you on what is surely one of the most impressive exercises in political reassurance ever produced: a 91-page document repeatedly explaining that a system which looks, behaves, and functions like a national digital identity infrastructure is definitely not a national digital identity infrastructure. Naturally, I was particularly comforted to learn that the system will be entirely voluntary. This is a powerful commitment to personal freedom. It is therefore reassuring to understand that while citizens will remain free not to use the digital ID, they may simply find themselves unable to complete right-to-work checks, prove their age, access services, or interact with organisations that adopt the system as the default form of identity verification. In other words, it will be voluntary in the same sense that umbrellas are voluntary during a rainstorm. The consultation also describes a vision of “joined-up public services,” supported by what appears to be a universal identifier capable of linking records across multiple government departments. I must commend the ambition here. For decades the British state has been forced to endure the inefficiency of citizens existing in separate administrative systems. Finally, technology will allow a citizen’s interactions with employment checks, benefits, education, and other services to be smoothly connected. I can only assume this will be done with the lightest possible touch, given the Government’s entirely understandable desire to know everything about everyone only in the most privacy-respecting way imaginable. Equally reassuring is the promise of “selective disclosure.” I understand this to mean that when I prove something simple, such as my age, the receiving party will only see the minimum information required. Meanwhile, the system operating behind the scenes may still confirm my identity and record that the check took place. I am sure this information will be handled with the utmost restraint and never used to build broader profiles of citizens’ lives, habits, or movements. Governments are, after all, well known for resisting the temptation to analyse data once it has been collected. Security, too, appears to be robust. The proposal sensibly places a citizen’s core identity credentials on a device that is famous for its stability and careful handling: the modern smartphone. The same device that people regularly lose, break, leave in taxis, or expose to malware will now hold the keys to their legal identity. Should anything go wrong, it is comforting to know the state retains the power to revoke or suspend a digital identity if fraud is suspected. This elegant feature ensures that, if a mistake occurs, a citizen’s ability to prove who they are and access services can be paused instantly, a level of efficiency rarely seen in government systems. The consultation also acknowledges that around one in ten adults lack in-date photo identification and that a significant portion of the population struggles with digital services. Fortunately, this challenge will apparently be addressed through an “inclusion programme.” While the details are understandably still being developed, I am confident that the elderly, the poor, the homeless, and the digitally excluded will be reassured to know that a plan exists somewhere. I was also intrigued by the system’s admirable restraint regarding scope. It will begin with only a few modest attributes — name, date of birth, nationality, and biometric image — while exploring the possibility of additional fields such as address and other identifiers in the future. The consultation also raises the possibility of digital identity for children from birth or adolescence. It is heartening to see such forward thinking: a lifelong identity record beginning at the very start of a citizen’s life is surely the most efficient way to ensure administrative continuity. The Government emphasises that the system will help combat fraud, which already represents a large share of recorded crime. I agree that criminals will undoubtedly be discouraged by the existence of a national digital identity infrastructure. Cybercriminals, phishing operations, and identity thieves are historically known for abandoning their activities the moment governments introduce a new digital platform. Finally, I appreciate the Government’s assurances regarding public trust. Britain has, in the past, rejected national identity card systems due to concerns about cost, surveillance, and civil liberties. It is therefore deeply reassuring to learn that this proposal is entirely different. After all, the previous proposal involved a physical card. This one merely involves a digital framework capable of verifying identity across multiple sectors of life, linking government services, and being carried constantly on a personal device. The distinction could not be clearer. For these reasons, I would like to thank the Government for its efforts to reassure the public that the proposed system is voluntary, privacy-preserving, secure, inclusive, limited in scope, resistant to mission creep, and worthy of complete trust. I must admit that after carefully reading the consultation, I find myself in the unusual position of understanding exactly what the Government says it intends and simultaneously feeling no more confident that the system will remain as limited or benevolent as promised. In summary, while I appreciate the ambition to modernise identity verification, the proposal appears to construct the technological foundations for a permission-based identity infrastructure in which the state ultimately controls the mechanisms by which citizens prove who they are. History suggests that systems with such capabilities rarely remain as narrow as their original descriptions. I therefore remain unconvinced that this proposal protects the privacy, autonomy, and freedoms of citizens in the way the consultation claims.

@AndyCantwell Absolutely brilliant!

@CartlandDavid They want it brought into from birth. They ask for recommendations on organisations that can assist which would surely be an open backdoor threat. This isn't going away. It is shameful.

Digital ID consultation launched by govt a few hours ago Go get em. Closes 5th May 2026 gov.uk/government/con… This is the full consultation document. I am going to read every word and then do a write up. It will take me time to do this. I also suggest everyone reads it if they can, as it will give us key info on what is hidden within the wording and key areas to look out for by what they are NOT saying gov.uk/government/con… Post from t.me/lawyersoflight

@TheSquareTiger @TalkTV @TVKev There is an online consultation.

@crillock @TalkTV @TVKev Which survey? I’ve signed on the link from one of the accounts on here and I’ve signed petition on their parliament website

"We don't want you to roll them out. WE DON'T WANT THEM!" @TVKev tears into the Government as they push the digital I.D. scheme once again.

@TheJoeySwoll 100% Deserved.

An incredible moment last night on my flight to Columbus, Ohio. I took a quick nap and woke up to this little note on my tray table. I opened it not knowing what it was or who put it there only to read this. It really moved me. I’ve been going through a LOT lately with my especially with my Mom and everything plus this is a very BIG weekend for me, and I really needed to hear this. I too need a reminded once in awhile “to be nicer to myself while still putting my best food forward”. I stood up and found the flight attendant that wrote me this and gave him a big hug. I will him anonymous but if somehow you see this “A”, please know you absolutely made my day and I too appreciate this “more than you probaly realize”. You have a great one in this young man @AmericanAir. 🙏🏼

@connellyandrew Absolutely spot on. Been in an horrific civil war since 2022 and apart from UN nonsense talk no one has intervened. The UK again going for the easy targets knowing there will be no push back whilst appearing to do something. Disgraceful.

“Instead of smashing the gangs, Shabana Mahmood is smashing the hopes and dreams of young people from Myanmar seeking a better future for themselves and their country.”

@CityHallTories @Councillorsuzie Abhorrent. If any of these so called public servants that voted against have children get child services to look into them immediately.

@kateferguson4 This is nuts. We need to reset and start again. The dumbing down and trying to relate phase is in full effect at the worst time possible.

@AyoubKhanMP What is this narcissistical nonsense? Get over yourself and start actually helping Birmingham. Your a local Birmingham MP so actually stop living in fantasy land and stop banging on about overseas issues which have nothing to do with us. Sort yourself out.

The people of Birmingham Perry Barr sent me to do the job for our constituency! However I often feel I am doing it for the whole of Birmingham and sometimes even for mankind.

@AndyCantwell These are brilliant.

New guy on The Overlap is the worst craic ever (part 4)

@emkenobi It is absolutely abhorrent. She needs checking out and locking up. A despicable "human being".

Saying they “ran a train” on a 12 year old is the most vile thing I’ve ever heard. She is a CHILD. She also says the 12 year old wasn’t a virgin so that means it wasn’t rape??? What a fucking braindead statement. They put rocks in her mouth to muffle her screams. They held her down so she couldn’t move. They deserve to be charged as adults and rot in prison so they never hurt another girl again. If these three boys already felt comfortable committing a violent gang rape, then I can’t imagine the things they would do to girls as they got older. The aunt defending them just tells me all I need to know about how they were raised. She can rot with them. Imagine being the girl’s parents and seeing this video while your child is recovering in the hospital after being violated in such a horrific way. What a disgusting human.

@GBPolitcs Myanmar? Again go after the easy targets to appear like they are doing something. How about helping Myanmar as they have been in a full on cival war for the last four years.

🚨BREAKING: The UK government has suspended study and work visas for Afghanistan, Sudan, Cameroon and Myanmar in an "unprecedented move"

@LASHYBILLS This is absolutely abhorrent. Lock her up along with the rapists.

One of the lil boys auntie who raped and put rocks in the little girl mouth went live defending their behavior

@TheGreenParty This loos like a college project for student council. Embarrassing that this is what UK politics has come to.

Plumber, Plasterer, Parliamentarian! 💚

@SamCoatesSky God help us if these grifters get anywhere near. We don't have time for high school fantasies and made up impossible to implement polices.
