Title: Britcard
Post by: roverstillidie91 on June 17, 2025, 11:00:24 pm
See they are now trying to push this 'britcard' or known as the Digital ID card.

If anyone has any sense they should be avoiding this like the plague.

In the long run it's my belief they're inevitable. Lots of reasons but the noticeable trend over this last 25 years of increasing state control of individuals continues to grow whilst the external environment is pointing ever more directly to a 'fortress Europe' and it's associated mentality. Those two reasons alone are more than enough to make ID cards loom ever larger in the minds of the political class.

Personally, I loathe the idea. But then, not even passports were necessary before 1920 so the trend towards more control has been growing for a century now.

People using the internet to complain about people wanting to collate data on them.

The irony...

I mean if you trust your government enough to not end up with a CBDC, Digital ID and a social credit system? 15 minute cities.

Search Britcard on X might make it clearer and show what it will lead to

They did a trial run with it during Covid. That's where it is leading you might think it is a conspiracy but do you trust our government not to impose it on us?

I don’t use X.  You brought the subject up and I asked you to clarify a statement.  Why is that so difficult to comprehend.?

And what the f**k is a CBDC.?
