Introduce mandatory Identity Cards

Petition Details

We call upon the Government to introduce mandatory Identity Cards. For many years in our country, this move has been resisted.

Now, with the Covid19 pandemic affecting our country, it is time to change tack and bring in Identity Cards. These could be useful in a number of ways.

Additional Information

For example they could show:

That you are a UK citizen and how old you are.

Where you live in the UK.

Whether you are a legal UK resident or whether you are a UK citizen residing elsewhere.

That you are eligible to work, have paid taxes and your entitlements to health, education and pension services.

Which elections you are entitled to vote in and whether you have already voted.

In a time of uncertain for our country, it is time to introduce Identity Cards.
