We break down how this system can be easily circumvented by unscrupulous employers, the shocking security flaws already present in government systems, and why this feels like a dystopian overreach that could lead to Chinese-style social credit systems.We also tackle the waste in public spending - from asylum seekers taking £980 taxi rides to GP appointments, to councils spending 10% of their budgets on school transport, to the astronomical costs of migrant hotels at £8 million per day. Plus, we discuss the absurdity of arresting 12,000 people for social media posts while knife attackers walk free with suspended sentences.What's your take on digital ID cards - necessary security measure or government overreach?
