"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."
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."

All adults would be assigned virtual verification that employers and landlords could check against a database of legal residents. The system aims to make it tougher to work illegally and to secure borders. The government says digital ID would allow citizens to prove identity to access services swiftly instead of using old documents. The plan has attracted growing criticism, including warnings from a senior Tory MP.
