"I know working people are worried about the level of illegal migration into this country. A secure border and controlled migration are reasonable demands, and this government is listening and delivering."
"Digital ID is an enormous opportunity for the UK. It will make it tougher to work illegally in this country, making our borders more secure. And it will also offer ordinary citizens countless benefits, like being able to prove your identity to access key services swiftly - rather than hunting around for an old utility bill."
"We are doing the hard graft to deliver a fairer Britain for those who want to see change, not division. That is at the heart of our Plan for Change, which is focused on delivering for those who want to see their communities thrive again."
The UK has launched a national digital ID scheme that will become central to Right to Work checks and broader border control efforts. The ID will be available to all UK citizens and legal residents and stored securely on smartphones via a GOV.UK digital wallet. The system is designed to streamline access to driving licences, childcare, welfare and tax records while prioritising privacy and security to reduce identity theft and simplify verification. Inclusion measures include outreach and face-to-face support for people unable to use smartphones. The scheme aims to make illegal working harder and strengthen border security.
