As Labour get serious about the development of a national digital ID, a couple of Q.s immediately occur:
Can the Govt, really successfully helm an important IT project whose hiccups could be incredibly disadvantageous for any failed by the system?
Will such a system effectively make ownership of a smartphone mandatory?
Will the UK Govt. be prepared to learn from ID practices across Europe or is it going to be another case of the UK reinventing the wheel?
