Government Launches First Digital ID
The UK government has rolled out the first digital ID as part of its plan to digitalise almost every form of ID in the country.
Last month, the government announced plans for digital ID cards, known as "Britcards", which will be subject to a full consultation. The proposal aims to tackle illegal immigration and will be part of each citizen's right to live and work in the UK.
Under the new rules, anyone starting a new job in the UK will be required to hold a digital ID. The first digital IDs, digital veteran cards, are now available for ex-members of the armed services.
A launch event was held at the Tower of London, where Beefeaters showcased their new digital veteran ID cards, as reported by Sky News.
