According to Darren (with his trendy middle manager style video) the digital IDs are purely to stop dodgy employers 🤔 The ones that don’t currently bother with ID checks, will suddenly be caught out with a different type of ID, they won’t check They really do think we are stupid

I wonder if this guy is related to "Boris Johnson" who introduced "voter id" as Prime Minister in 2023 ... off the back of some crazy US conspiracy theories ... and in the process, made digital ID pretty much inevitable.

If the UK govt wants economic growth it must bring essential industries into public ownership. High price of energy and water fuels inflation, poverty, deplietes people's purchasing power Industries like water, energy have extracted dividends, neglected investment.

Andy Burnham says it’s time for the UK to stop being in hock to the bond markets. The City is in uproar, but who really calls the shots in Britain—the government we elect, or unelected financiers? youtu.be/E1oOQ0EOPhY?...

4. We pay again and again for a failure to raise taxes. It’s a false economy, for which we suffer in multiple ways. Fair Taxation Saves Us Money.

Disabled experts from the United Nations have told the UK government to carry out a “comprehensive” assessment of the human rights impact of its universal credit cuts bill, further plans to reform disability benefits, and its mental health reforms. www.disabilitynewsservice.com/un-calls-for...

My FOI request becomes even more critical in this context - the UK’s weaker regulatory environment makes transparency mechanisms like FOI requests one of the few remaining tools for public accountability when dealing with surveillance-adjacent technologies from companies like Palantir.

Ok. They’ve pissed me off. I’m back to tell you 3 things about ID cards: 1. Migrants ALREADY HAVE biometric ID cards & govts have been trying to digitise them for years w repeated fuckups & failures causing complete chaos - they don’t work, you do not want that system for you.

Thousands 1.5 million signatures and still climbing rapidly. Add your signature now .... petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

GUILTY

NI Numbers don't stop illegal working Passports don't stop illegal working Residence cards don't stop illegal working Driving Licenses don't stop illegal working Bank statements don't stop illegal working its almost as if you can't stop illegal working

2. Countries that have ID cards - like the whole of Europe - still have the same irregular migration problem (you may have heard!!!) & in fact the UK has the lowest share of its economy estimated as irregular economy in Europe so if it fixes the issue WHY DIDNT IT FIX IT THERE?

But hey, it’s a digital age, so it would make MY life simpler and I could get my Radiohead tickets quicker 🤪

I for one don’t want Peter Thiel and Palantir having my data so I signed this petition. #DigitalIDCards petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Predatory capitalism UK retailers ripping off motorists as fuel margins ‘remain far above historic levels’. Supermarket retailers’ margins increased to between 8% and 9.1%. Inevitable as exec pay is linked to profits. No regulator/govt protects people

"When Tony Blair tried to launch ID cards in the early 2000s, it cost £4.6bn at 2010 prices, and never even got off the ground." goodlaw.social/j17w

“Let’s call it for what it is: bullshit. The truth is, politicians have talked about little else but immigration for decades and in the most dehumanising ways. Polanski added: “Stop the boats’ is all we hear. Well, today I'm saying ‘stop the bullshit’.” www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Since 7.20 am, when I posted this 👇🏻, the signature count has risen by 500k. Starmer has gone large on a policy that has united privacy NGOs, civil liberty orgs, minority groups and Nigel Farage in opposition. Approaching lettuce levels of political ineptitude.

Urgent! We've hope to have a BIG ENERGY SWITCH next week, yet the Collective Switch regs say it must be members only. So we designate the free MSE weekly email recipients as our membership. If you don't get it, you need join by midnight tonight (Fri) www.moneysavingexpert.com/site/signup/

Is it "move to Dubai"?

All part of the plan to steer the UK to corporatism/fascism. One continuous economic and foreign policy from Tories to Labour to Reform. Entrap, impoverish and enslave in a fully privatised corporatist hellscape of SEZs and freeports.

Yes, entrap impoverish and enslave in a fully privatised corporatist hellscape of SEZs and freeports. No human rights, no public services and no public good.

Curse of private equity. After US hospitals were acquired by private equity firms, patient death rates in the emergency depts rose by 13% compared with similar hospitals. PE cut staffing, wages, investment; hiked profits. People killed for profit. Yet UK handing healthcare to PE.

We should all ask the question: Where is Keir Starmer?

This isn’t immigration control - it’s INFRASTRUCTURE for a surveillance state. When the same company tracking CIA targets builds your “ID card” system, you’re not getting documentation - you’re getting MONITORED. Please repost TO SOUND THE ALARM

✅ What surveillance capabilities are being built? ✅ Where are the privacy safeguards? ✅ Who else is profiting from this scheme? ⏰ URGENT: Starmer announces this TOMORROW ⏰ Government has 20 days to respond under FOI law ⏰ Every UK adult will be forced onto this database

Given this EXTENSIVE presence across UK institutions, Palantir involvement in Brit Card is not just possible - it’s PROBABLE. MY FOI DEMANDS ANSWERS ON: ✅ Is Palantir contracted for Brit Card technology? ✅ What’s the contract value & scope? ✅ How will our biometric/personal data be used?

🏥 NHS - patient data analytics 🛡️ Ministry of Defence - military intelligence 👮 Police Forces - “predictive policing” systems 🏛️ Cabinet Office - cross-govt data platform 🏘️ DLUHC - local authority surveillance 🏛️ Coventry City Council - citizen monitoring

I have just submitted an FOI to the Home Office demanding FULL TRANSPARENCY on Palantir’s role in tomorrow’s “Brit Card” mandatory digital ID scheme 🚨 WHY THIS MATTERS: Palantir already has its surveillance tentacles deep in UK infrastructure with 24+ government contracts including: Thread

The government wants to bring back private finance in our NHS. 🤬 This would harm patients by siphoning off hundreds of millions of pounds in profits from our NHS. 🤑 Rachel Reeves and Wes Streeting, you can still drop these disastrous and unpopular plans. Share if you agree.
