Introduce Digital ID Cards Now. Reduce the pull-factor for illegal immigration
I support the Government’s proposal to introduce digital ID cards. And I think that there will be considerable support for it. A petition for this would provide an appropriate balance against petitions not in favour of digital ID cards.

Only introduce digital id cards for non-uk nationals
We want the government to re-think the idea that IDs for UK nationals could help reduce illegal immigration. We think that if non UK nationals all had to have an ID to confirm residency, then they could be approached to confirm ligitamcy.
Create a voluntary physical national ID card
With the advent of the up and coming EES system in Europe, we are asking for a Government ID card system similar to current EU member state ID cards.
Do not roll out digital IDs
We do not want digital IDs. We are concerned about total control by the government. Do not spend our money on this system!
Enhance NI with a secure biometric ID to protect citizens from identity theft
We want the Government to enhance the National Insurance system with a secure biometric ID card. Optional for most citizens; mandatory (employer-funded) for directors, regulated professions and Senior Management Function holders.
Make all official travel passes acceptable as voter ID
I would like the government to ensure that young people are not being discriminated against by being unable to use their local/devolved government-issued travel passes as ‘acceptable photo ID’ for voting, while those over 60 are permitted to use their travel passes.
