14 Jan 2026:
Last night, it was reported that Starmer has dropped plans for compulsory digital ID.
A huge WELL DONE to everyone taking action so far. Your emails, social media posts, protests, local actions, leafletting helped make this possible.
But this is just the beginning. Here’s what needs to happen next:
1. Govt must scrap their whole Digital ID “project” now.
It wasn’t in the manifesto. No-one wants it. They plan to spend £1.8bn – for starters! – taken from other areas. Most of all, they have shown they simply can’t be trusted with this.
2. One Login should be frozen immediately due to serious security concerns.
Whistleblowers report One Login may already be compromised. No-one should use it.
3. Companies House MUST urgently provide a free offline alternative to One Login for Company Directors.
4. No de facto national digital ID for kids via the Children’s Wellbeing & Schools Bill.
5. Digital Bill of Rights
We need a Digital Bill of Rights as a bulwark to protect our key freedoms, otherwise we are just playing whack-a-mole.
Starmer’s climbdown is a big win due to the pressure we all put on.
It shows we have power and can influence things #together. We need to recognise the win AND keep fighting, because we all know this is a long-term fight.
19 May 2026:
We now have the first news of the government’s new Digital ID Bill – officially called the “Digital Access to Services Bill”.
Though the Bill has yet to be published, we understand the plan builds on systems and laws that are already being put in place, including:
- The existing GOV UK One Login system (whose serious problems we’ve covered extensively)
- The GOV UK Wallet
- And the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025, which created the legal framework for so-called “Digital Verification Services”.
This Bill would go much further.
Among other things, it would create an official government Digital ID system and link access to government services through a single One Login account.
The implications of this are enormous – and needless to say, Digital ID was never in the Labour manifesto.
We need to do everything we can to stop this Bill – you can help us by becoming a member.
We’ve already had an impact in getting a climbdown on the “compulsory” aspect – even if we all know the risk is Digital ID becomes compulsory later… or impossible to live without.
The best time to stop this is right now. If you don’t want Britain becoming a “Papers Please” country – now is the time.
