United Kingdom to introduce digital ID card for citizens and residents
The British government announced on Friday the creation of a new digital identity system for citizens and residents. The measure, which will not involve a physical card but instead be stored on mobile phones, is designed to make illegal work more difficult while offering easier access to essential public services.
According to officials, the digital ID will allow individuals to prove their identity quickly when applying for jobs, accessing healthcare, or using government platforms. The initiative is presented as both a tool for security and a modernization of administrative procedures.
The plan reflects broader trends across Europe, where several countries have already adopted digital identity systems to improve efficiency and reduce fraud.
