If you look at the countries that are lauded at having the best online government services. They all have some type of digital ID.

Having something like that is imo. a cornerstone for building out top notch digital governmental services, and I don't fault the UK for trying to get this in place.

That being said, I'm not convinced it will be that much of a blocker for illegal workers. I'm sure they will find a way around it.

If I hire someone to work and pay them in cash, then I don't need to worry about this? Yes?
