Prioritise the development and launch of UK Gov digital identity by Winter 2026

Petition Details

Fast-track UK digital ID launch by Winter 2026. Integrate with passports, driving license and NI. Ensure top security, privacy and accessibility while complementing not replacing private digital ID providers that are UK DIATF compliant. Be transparent to citizens on any surveillance applications.

Additional Information

We believe digital ID can drive improvement in how citizens interact with their government and access essential services. With proper safeguards and citizen-centric design, we could create an efficient, secure, and inclusive society enabling citizens with secure and convenient access. Many progressive nations successfully implemented it, so with better planning, citizen engagement, and robust privacy protections, we think it can enhance the digital economy while maintaining public trust.
