Former PM Tony Blair has suggested the UK needs compulsory ID cards and massive roll out of facial recognition tech to counter what he calls 'populism'.

Do you think ID cards are a good idea or is Blair out of touch again?

Good idea, lets get them out to people now, use the data held on driving licences / passports and NI numbers.

All below is registered with a card not physically in their hands, but should carry ID last point.

Anyone arriving at a NHS facility that hasn't got an ID card, does not get treated and will be reported / arrested.

Any business that employs a person without an ID card, 6 months prison on first offence.

Any person stopped / arrested for whatever crime that does not have a card, and should not be in the country deport.

Make a temp card available in other countries to people seeking asylum and can prove their identity, they can then use that card to arrive via any route. If any person arrives seeking asylum without a card, deport them straight away.

I don't like either, but Facial Recognition combined with AI is inevitable. Essentially it will mean every aspect of our lives is tracked.The potential for fraud and/or bl@ckm@il is enormous. That's why it's not a good idea to post face pics on sites like this.

We are all tracked everywhere already. Adding an ID isn't going to be a big change when it comes to privacy. If it helps sorting out misuse of social welfare, we might as well have it.

Agree with some of that in principle but who will implement any of it in practice ? We hardly enforce the laws we already have around illegal immigration and the black economy and our borders are open to anyone who fancies it.

That fits in with an article I just read. A guy came here via the small boats route, claimed asylum but within hours of being put into a hotel, absconded. He worked illegally for a few years at a cannabis place, tending the plants, obviously not paying into the system via tax. Then one day went to A& E and got himself an operation on the NHS using his real name (was deemed an emergency). Once better he has fled back to his home country, despite the fact he was claiming asylum from it. Something's definitely broken and may take more than ID cards to fix but it's a start

If we had ID cards there would soon be a flourishing black market in fake or cloned ones, just as we've got thousands of people driving on fake licences or even getting others to take their test. Without an enforcement infrastructure nothing will change.

We’ve had gate recognition in this country for over twenty years. Not everywhere but around high risk sites and town centres. It’s also been used at sporting events where violence is expected.

We all walk differently and computers can identify us from this. Adding facial recognition has “improved” it.

It’s never been a secret though widely ignored by the media.

Not seen the details but I'm broadly against facial recognition being used, when there should be a presumption of innocence and surveillance of everything of everyone isn't commensurate with this, for the tiny minority who might have done something wrong.

ID cards were an unpopular idea last time and I don't have any more support for it today. I think it's likely the same overall, across the population. Any problems or needs can likely be solved via existing.means. it would probably be another very expensive government IT failure to fail to stay within budget and be open to abuse.

I don't get what the motivation could be.

What we have is a succession of governments that have created a failure in immigration policy and a media that’s drummed up fear of the illegal immigration that it’s caused.

Now they will triangulate and rescue us from the problem they caused by stripping our freedoms.

Ideally they will want us to demand identity cards.

And if those terrorists were born, raised and educated in the UK? Would their state issued ID card not make life easier for them? Or is that sort of thing just impossible?

They would need to improve the facial recognition technology.

I have to use it on my banking app sometimes and it’s totally shite, takes multiple tries to even register the image let alone recognise it, been locked out of bank account twice for trying too many times, then it’s into the branch to get them to do the transactions and sort out the account.

I really don't see why there is such resistance to ID cards.

I'm resident in Germany and have carried mine for years without any problem. All Germans do and ditto most of Europe.

Besides if you have a passport or driving licence (most have one or both) or even a credit card, the same information is stored.

Of course there will be problems but I think ID cards would solve more than they would create. Certainly among the illegals.

The current situation where people can use whatever public services they like without anyone knowing who they are is untenable.

It is beyond trial, it is used today in every airport in the UK. The police use it too, live recognition and retrospective recognition.

Blair is clueless, a friend of mine looks like David Beckham, botox victims distorted features from one week to another, beards, moustaches disguises of all sorts, facial recognition can work though but it's still fallable.

The cure is tagging everyone and traceable movements. Obviously not everyone's liking, I wouldn't want to be tagged on principle but it would prove I wasn't where the crime was committed.

Nothing to hide so nothing to fear eh?

I think that's probably true for the vast majority in UK.

But what if some laws were introduced that made the vast majority on the wrong side of the law. For example..being the 11th person at a funeral when only 10 are allowed, being in Tesco without proof of a vaccination or something, going to work somewhere that it was mandatory to have a medical intervention, buying coal, gas or petrol after you've already overspent on your carbon credit limit, being too far from your home whenever a pointless lockdown is called, not reacting on the correct manner whenever the "emergency alert" goes off on your smartphone.

Nothing to hide and nothing to fear as it stands maybe....just wait until you catch up with the future. An awful lot of people could find themselves breaking laws that don't exist yet!

I really hate to break the bad news, if you have a driving licence or a passport you are already part of a facial recognition database.

Having an ID card wont make surveillance more intrusive than it is today, but it will help manage illegal entry and possibly enable safe routes.

Yes

In the UK, all driving licenses must be in photocard format by 2033. However, you can continue to use your paper license until it expires. 

Check it dose not have a expiry date as well.

And after 70 you have to renew every 3 years.

At birth when registered would be a logical starting point, it would stay with a person forever like a NI number. This would be inline with other European countries, but not all.

You don't get a NI number till 16 at the moment unless you request 1

The only thing it has impacted on is voting and I haven’t done that for a while anyway🤷

As for needing ID in general, the only people who have asked was at the bank but they were happy with paper license, a couple of utility bills and my bank card, I have been using the same branch since I was a teenager though

Haven’t moved since I first got a license in 1984, haven’t actually moved since 1970

Oh well you could be OK

Happy days I guess you are almost out of the system.

I find it hard when I need ID. It must be almost impossible for you. But good luck.

The only thing it has impacted on is voting and I haven’t done that for a while anyway🤷

As for needing ID in general, the only people who have asked was at the bank but they were happy with paper license, a couple of utility bills and my bank card, I have been using the same branch since I was a teenager though "

Is your nickname "The Shadow"

Having an ID card wont make surveillance more intrusive than it is today, but it will help manage illegal entry and possibly enable safe routes.

I have a driving license but it does not have a photo on it, yes I’m old.

Only for the next 8 years unless it expires sooner then it will have to have a photo on it. They don't last forever.

It doesn’t expire until I’m 70. Are they changing the license rules in 8 years, hadn’t heard that.

Yes

In the UK, all driving licenses must be in photocard format by 2033. However, you can continue to use your paper license until it expires. 

Check it dose not have a expiry date as well.

And after 70 you have to renew every 3 years.

Guess you have not moved or had points in a long time. Go you.

I guess you don't have anything that identify you then not e en a bank card. Cash is the only payment that's hard to trace..

Is it freedom when a crime is committed against you but, the perpetrator cannot be identified.

No it dose not but when CCTV evidence shows how done a crime there is no date bace to match it to at the moment. So it's hard to get a prosecution.

Is that how you see ID, your posts are very emotive and I'm not sure personal ID warrants such emotion from anyone other than those not having ID would negatively impact.

Have you considered the benefits of ID and ID cards? There are practical questions worth discussing, but I’m not sure ID cards warrants such dramatic comparisons.

Do you know what information is held on your biometric passport, the chip?

Digital copy of you passport photo for facial recognition, a digital copy of your passport number, this can be checked against the printed number on the passport, security features to prevent the passport being tampered or copied and travel information when digitally stamped by countries you enter and leave.

I would suggest all of that plus, NI number, address, NHS number, UK citizenship confirmation, driving licence information (wouldn't need 2 docs)

With that information you would be able to access all public services, health services etc etc.

The impact would not be to have a card, it would be if a person doesn't have a card, that will restrict severely their opportunities to play the systems.

Rights as said before that people died to uphold.

And now due to immigration the health service, you would call for everyone to be branded so these few hundred thousand people who iyo shouldn't be here so punish them put off those who may come here with an I.D card for all.

What crap what utter sh1t,i do not give up my freedoms because some one who has issues with how the government run immigration or the health service, utter crap.

Few million who shouldn’t be here is more accurate."

And is that a reason we should all give up our freedoms?

The people who have to wear I.D cards without choice are prisoners.

"With the scandals that we know governments around the world have got up to and I can't even imagine the shit we don't know about and people actually talking about putting chips inside your body, It is getting to a point that we will be carrying Id cards but it shouldn't be forced on us, Most people already do carry some sort of ID, driving license, mobile phones etc anyway but isn't there rumours going around about being able to vote without ID, If we have to carry ID cards of some sort in the future you shouldn't be able to vote without one

If we already have documents that are connected to national databases, that we use regularly such as passports and drivers licence's, what is the pushback on a national ID "card" that would help cut down on illegal overstay, enhance credit and security checks as an example?

Most other countries are using them.

For me it depends on what is on the ID card, Photo, Name, DOB, place of birth, I can't think of anything else that needs to be on it

Do you know what information is held on your biometric passport, the chip?

Digital copy of you passport photo for facial recognition, a digital copy of your passport number, this can be checked against the printed number on the passport, security features to prevent the passport being tampered or copied and travel information when digitally stamped by countries you enter and leave.

I would suggest all of that plus, NI number, address, NHS number, UK citizenship confirmation, driving licence information (wouldn't need 2 docs)

With that information you would be able to access all public services, health services etc etc.

The impact would not be to have a card, it would be if a person doesn't have a card, that will restrict severely their opportunities to play the systems.

If you were to be stopped by the police in the street and they asked for you to identify yourself would you?

The law states that you do not (unless you are suspected of a crime) have to give the police any personal information at all.

A car stop carries different rules.

So you are asking me to give up my freedoms make the rich and lawmakers more powerful and me less.

Doesn't sound good to me at all."

Yes I carry my phone most of the time and there is a pick of my driving licence on it as ID. And would me happy to show it and be on my way.

Yes, it is a reasonable trade off. Most of us carry some form of identification anyway so it isn’t much of a problem.

Having to show identification reasonably frequently to carry out daily activities is again not too much hassle.

Certainly it is needed before being able to access any services, benefits or healthcare.

I'm really not following your thought process.

All your personal info for an ID card already exists, it puts it in one place. Nobody would expect an ID card to remove freedom, that just isn't making sense.

I seem to remember you quoting "youtube auditors" a few times, are you applying their activities and the purposeful crafted interactions with the police to create content as a benchmark for ID cards?

I may have got the wrong end of the stick, but I don’t ever recall having had to produce ID to access healthcare

And that’s the problem.

It should be compulsory to carry ID and to produce it to access services such as healthcare.

Injure yourself or fall ill abroad and the first question they ask is how you will pay for your treatment. This country is soft.
