Digital ID will help us target illegal workers and make our lives easier. It’s time to modernise, we’ve fallen behind. Watch for more information 🎬

Illegals workers are paid in cash. Digital ID will have zero effect on them.

Digital ID won't fix illegal working. Britain already has right-to-work checks, penalties for employers and the power to raid and prosecute. What's missing is will, not another database. If the aim were to stop illegal work, you'd be tightening removal law, clearing the appeals backlog and hammering the employers who hire off the books. Instead you're talking about "modernising" the paperwork for everyone else. Digital ID is not border control. It's domestic control. You're proposing a universal pass for work, rent, banking and services - a system that hits every citizen, every day, while the migration machine stays untouched. That's not targeted; it's blanket compliance. Scope creep is certain. These systems never stay small. They begin with a single pretext - today it's illegal workers - then expand step by step. Tomorrow it's age checks, travel passes, health access, speech policing online. Each new "upgrade" widens the net. Once built, the grid only grows; it never rolls back. And for what? A smart illegal labour market will route round your app: cash work, fake credentials, complicit bosses. Meanwhile the law-abiding majority get scanned, logged and risk-scored to prove they are who they've always been. There's a deeper danger too: data and power. A single state-approved identity stitched to money, movement and speech is a master key. Keys get copied. Databases get breached. Ministers change. What you call "modern" is one bad law - or one bad actor - away from abuse. If you're serious about stopping illegal work, do what works: rewrite removal law so failed claims don't drag on for years. Make employer sanctions automatic and painful, and publish the names. Stand up workplace enforcement that does real inspections, not box-ticking. Kill the pull factors and set a hard national-interest test for legal migration. Modern Britain doesn't need a passbook. It needs a state that enforces the law at the border and in the workplace - without turning free citizens into QR codes. You don't fix a leaky roof by tagging the furniture. You fix the roof. "Digital ID is not border control. It's domestic control. You're proposing a universal pass for work, rent, banking and services - a system that hits every citizen, every day, while the migration machine stays untouched."

Liar

Gaslighting cunt! We ain't that fucking stupid, moron.

How about no?

Just one question, why the @UKLabour party want to get their Digital ID App on all British people's mobile phone?

Wrong. This is about the tyranny of the state.

Idiot

Modernise all you want, Digital ID won’t stop illegal workers. They’re in the black market; untaxed, cash in hand, invisible to your system. Copy-paste slogans don’t change that.

I’ve got an English birth certificate, an NI no. An NHS no. they already tell you that I’m not an illegal worker, you are not making me have digital id.

Also

How do you ‘target illegal workers’ with Digital ID if they don’t use ID to work? They don’t use it now and they won’t use it in future.

How? Illegal workers will be paid cash under the table so it won’t stop illegal working and that is on the employers, not us. I have all the ID I need thanks. British passport, NI Number and driving licence. Shove your digital ID up your arse.

No one is going to trust anyone that allows this, Mike.

Fuck you. You wankers don't have a mandate for this.

This is how Chinese government stop people, who refuse to get vaccinated, from going to work to make a living. You need to verify your vaccine passport to enter your workplace in China. ——If you are not vaccinated, No Job For You!🚨🚨

Gaslighting nonsense. You gave the game away when you said it would lead to a new form of governance. This will be the foundation stone of the Marxist social credit system you Fabian extremists have been plotting for decades. Ram it.

A simple question for you -where in the Labour manifesto is there reference to the introduction of Digital ID?

Watch the interview as I do cover that. 😎

@IeuanHughes19 Translation: “it wasn’t in the manifesto but I lack the integrity or honesty to give you a straight answer”

@MikeTappTweets All from an MP who responded to a post "journalist". An absolute 🤡who thinks being in government entitles him to respond to members of the electorate with contempt and disrespect.

Without a valid vaccine passport, you can't even public toilets in China! Digital ID will take away all your freedom and dignity. Do not follow China's steps!!🚨🚨

Thanks China Mike. Everybody knows what Digital ID means.

What an utter load of cobblers! Stick your Digital ID up your Fabian arseholes ya narcissistic control freaks! We know exactly what you are trying to achieve!

I think we should create a MP ID card, which you need to live your life. Your constituents get to see everyone you socialise with, everywhere you go and every transaction you make. Then, if we think you're a gaslighting cunt, we can simply remove your privileges. Sound good?

Dear @UKLabour, since when did ‘everyone else does it’ become UK policy? Our tradition is liberty first, not "papers-please". Compulsory ID is just not British. Copying Europe’s ID cards because ‘they do it’ is lazy policy. We have different history, different law and different values. Keep Britain free. Britain’s tradition is trust in citizens—not treating us like suspects. Read more about how Britain differs from countries that have compulsory ID here:

Read the room Tapp. Nobody is falling for it and it will never happen. Give up now and admit defeat. Please do not waste anymore of our money. Many thanks, The people of the United Kingdom 👍

Digital id brings misery

You are all absolute wankers.

Absolute bull from the fake patriot. You need to wake up and push back against your traitor of a boss. This has nothing to do with controlling our borders or migration — it’s about clamping down on the native population.

Eat shit you New World Order fuckbag

It’s a joke.

See how stupid this is!! Just resign you aren’t fit to run our country!!

Read the room we do not want it and we will not comply. Just stop the effing boats 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
