Abandon the Push to Introduce a Digital ID.
I would like the Government to abandon the push for a Digital-ID regardless of it being voluntary, to prevent any future amendments to make the Digital-ID compulsory and affect the privacy and livelihoods of those within the United Kingdom.
If a Digital-ID is introduced into the United Kingdom as a voluntary system there is no guarantee that any future Parliament will not alter the voluntary status whether gradually or outright, as Parliament cannot bind its successors. By preventing a Digital-ID from being introduced, it also prevents it from overstepping in our lives in a similar vein to what it was originally intended to do.
