About this Event
Supporters say compulsory ID could make Britain safer. It would help stop fraud, crime, and illegal immigration while making it easier to prove who you are when voting, travelling, or using public services. For many, it represents order, protection, and trust in a modern society.
Opponents warn it could threaten privacy and freedom. They fear it gives the government too much power and risks turning Britain into a surveillance state. Personal data could be hacked, misused, or used to target certain groups, making safety feel more like control.
