So all of us who live here legally already with NI numbers and multiple forms of Verifiable ID being mandated to carry digital identification will stop those crossing the channel “illegally”  

Is that what I said? (Rhetorical question)

Care to explain how you see this actually working.

No, it would take years of my life and you still would not understand.

I seem to remember, not that long ago, an unbelievable amount of tax payers money being wasted on a Covid track and trace system that never worked.

I have serious doubts that they could even manage this idea, even if everyone wanted it. 
If only there was a way to coherence people into having one, just like the Covid jabs, if only the was an ‘invasion’ of some sort that could be stopped, but allowed to continue, that might help push it over the line. 

True but that looked like jobs for the boys, was it £35 billion ish spunked on a useless private company when the nhs could have provided a better service for less money. They already had a track and trace system in place.

 

I appreciate the info from all of the above on the id card stuff. It looks like its inevitable which lets be honest, its going to happen globally at some point. I dont understand the argument that it will cut down on illegal immigration, how will it?  And people who use cash in hand employees will continue to do so ID card or not.
