Let the people decide on Digital ID through a national vote

Petition Details

We ask the UK Government to hold a public vote before introducing any Digital ID system.
All adults in the UK — citizens and residents — should decide.
This is about democracy, transparency and trust between people and Government.

Additional Information

Many people are worried about privacy, freedom and possible misuse of Digital ID.
Such an important decision should not be made without the consent of the people.
Let the people decide through a national vote.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

You may wish to sign this petition, which calls for the same action: "Hold a referendum on introducing mandatory identity cards in the UK" petition.parliament.uk/petitions/734246
