Demonstrators denounced the ‘BritCard’ digital ID plan as mass surveillance, as over 2.6 million Britons signed a petition rejecting the government’s scheme. The protestors gathered on Sunday, September 28, carrying signs reading “No to Digital ID.” They warned that digital identification infrastructure may pave the way for a surveillance state, the Independent reports. The protests came days after Starmer announced that no one in the U.K. would be allowed to work without the digital ID, known as the “BritCard.”U.K. citizens have shown strong opposition to the government’s digital ID scheme, revealing how unpopular the plan is with large swaths of the population. “I know working people are worried about the level of illegal migration into this country,” the prime minister said. The globalist NGO of the former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, the “Tony Blair Institute for Global Change,” is one of the premier proponents of the digital ID scheme.
