    People don't understand the true picture about what is happening, they are going to introduce this digital ID whether the country wants it or not, not for convenience but for ultimate control. What they don't tell you is the plan to use these ID's to get access on the internet, being anonymous online won't be a thing. They want to phase out physical cash, only having digital currency, you'd need it to log into your accounts or if you do big purchases. You'd need it to own a crypto wallet, taking away anomalously. You'd need it for sorting/logging into benefits or any other government system. Eventually too, you'll need it to enter your own property.

    They say its not mandatory, but they will make it so difficult and an inconvenience if you didn't have it that eventually you'll be forced to use it, making you believe its a better option. With eventually making it impossible to do anything without it. And god forbid in future if you want to stand up to your rights, or protest anything as if you don't conform they will turn off your access to everything.

    This is not a conspiracy, this is the secret 2030 agenda.

    I agree it blows my mind how people cant see it all unfolding and acting shocked they are not even hiding the agenda the thing is what do we do ? I sit here racking my brains seems no solution especially if your reliant on the state i cant retain information but I wish I could learn to drive impossible for me but if I could id sell all my stuff and buy a campervan but I bet the government make that impossible or so expensive to do I keep saying when does it stop becoming conspiracy I think that time is now

    I don't have any concerns. The scheme will NOT be compulsory for us - only for the migrants people are moaning about!

    There's nothing Big Brother doesn't already know about me and I don't use a smartphone. My DNA is held along with my most personal family, medical and psychological history - there is nothing more private to me than this and it's already been taken from me and abused.

    Unless you live off-grid, your energy usage, shopping and banking transactions, employment history, journeys and communications is data. Data as a currency is not new. Photo ID is not new. If and when digital ID becomes mandatory, I might wear a ring or carry a phone. People already wear button implants to scan instead of carrying cards or cash.

    Finally, before a recent dental hospital appointment, I received a questionnaire. It asked me if I had an active sex life. I left it blank. So no, I don't understand that fuss.

    Just to add to what MW123 has said,

    ' ….the government announced plans to roll out digital IDs by the end of the parliament—but digital ID would only be mandatory for those who are looking to work in the UK, not for “everyone”.

    Did you see Data bill about to pass this is unnerving it gives state so much power seems they are completing a jigsaw bit by bit and in that bill they wrote new laws and policies can be passed without debates without sounding negative I think thier way ahead of the people

    My concerns are for people that don't have smartphones or can't use apps. Also the potential for hacking and the information being used by scammers. Scammers are getting more and more sophisticated and the government can't promise to keep it secure.

    There is also the potential of identifying specific groups of people to target (profiling etc) its bad enough with the DWPs power to get information from bank accounts. It all feels very controlling.

    excuse me we are as entitled to our own opinions as is every one else we are not the ones using misinformation or lack of understanding that could be deemed as scaremongering for the vulnerable members on scope

    It fills me with dread tbh I'd like to say we are living in a civilised world with rights but that seems to be fading wish I could live in a community thats off grid I don't know what skills I could bring like us all im desperate to get out of this matrix and this agenda i keep saying when does this all stop becoming conspiracy because the world isn't the same the amount of chaos I believe is manufactured to set civil war i try to talk to my daughter for a plan B she thinks im crazy but I think its crazy that people think this coumtry the world is still the same its like all dystopian films I've ever seen the eroding of society i have hope with the monks doing the peace walk and that fills me with joy but on the other shoulder im very very uneasy feel like a sitting duck
