Jokainen työssä käyvä britti tulee tarvitsemaan "Brit cardin" (digital id) Starmerin suunnitelmassa laittoman maahanmuuton taklaamiseksi.
"Every working adult in Britain will be required to have a new government-issued
digital identity card as part of a fresh attempt to crack down on
illegal migration."
Kumpa vain olisi jokin muu keino hillitä/estää laitonta maahanmuuttoa, ei tule mitään mieleen..
"But the leaders of eight civil liberties groups have warned that mandatory digital ID risks pushing “unauthorised migrants further into the shadows”.
Ei siis mitään muita ongelmia digi-id:ssä kuin mahdolliset mamujen ongelmat, tämä siis maassa jossa vihapuhepoliisi tulee ovelle sosiaalisen median viesteistä.
"Polling shows the public is broadly supportive of the idea, with a survey conducted by More in Common in December finding that 53 per cent of people are in favour of a universal digital identification system, with 25 per cent strongly in favour. Just 19 per cent said they were against it."
Vain 19 % vastustaa, no enemmistöstä koronapassikin oli ok joten ei sinänsä yllätä.
"TBI’s (Tony Blair Institute) director of government innovation, Alexander Iosad, said an announcement of universal digital ID “would be one of the most important steps taken by this or any government to make British citizens’ everyday lives easier and build trust”.
Helpottaa arkea ja rakentaa luottamusta, count me in!
Iosad jatkaa: " -- Not only can digital ID help us to tackle illegal migration, but done correctly and responsibly, it can open the door to a whole new model of services that come to you when you need them”, he added.
Voi avata (ja sulkea) ovia, kätevää hallituksenkin kannalta.
