Quite a way down in this article, but I've seen it said elsewhere as well.

It will be compulsory for anyone looking to work in the UK

I suppose that could read as applying to those already in work, as each time they go to work they are "looking to work" that day.

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
Surprised this hasn't already been mentioned, Multiverse is one of, if not the leading contender to produce the ID cards. Guess who set that company up, Euan Blair, you couldn't make it up

I read a while ago it had rising debts - no idea if that's still he case.
I guess with a Govt. contract to produce ID cards the debt (if any) will disappear overnight

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
My view has always been a difference between ID cards and entitlement "devices" that can serve as ID. Driving license is entitlement to drive and with a photo can be used to show identity. A passport is a border movement document (visa also required sometimes) that can also show identity.
I have no problem with entitlement cards but I do with ID cards. I certainly would have issues with a single card then replacing all the others. Everyone gets an ID and you add on entitlements or remove them as needed. Now put that power in to a future, totalitarian regime let alone an incompetent one. At a touch of a dictators whim your right to work is removed.

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
If those Labour fools could do something that's wise, they could align the data fields in the digital ID with those in the EU. This could enable future ability to go passportless to Europe without disrupting its purpose in the UK.

It looks as if it might have been made up - Multiverse is a EdTech training and apprenticeship company, not a software provider or a systems integration company.

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
 when did not having the knowledge, machinery and infrastructure ever stop a business with 'connections' from getting a lucrative Govt. contract
