Speaker 1: Yeah, hello, it's a very well welcome. It's andy, it's
Speaker 1: early January. I've had a few days off and I
Speaker 1: hope you're all doing very well. There a new year,
Speaker 1: got rid of the snow, and yeah, how about this today?
Speaker 1: Then Starmer the farmer Granny Armor. Government drops plans for
Speaker 1: mandatory digital ID to work in UK. So the government
Speaker 1: has dropped plans required workers to sign up for this
Speaker 1: digital idea scheme in order to prove their weight to
Speaker 1: work by and went to work. Checks will be done digitally,
Speaker 1: for example by using passports, but registrant will be optional.
Speaker 1: It's dead of mandatory. This marks a shift from last
Speaker 1: year when the government announce a policy and Prime Minister
Speaker 1: Starmer told in all audience you will not be able
Speaker 1: to work in the UK if you do not have
Speaker 1: did your ID. It's as similars that Conservative leader Kenedy
Speaker 1: Badnock said, good riddance. It was a terrible policy anyway.
Speaker 1: Chris Mason, the climb downs stack up for Stammer with
Speaker 1: digital ID U turn. She said the move by Labor
Speaker 1: represented another U turn. The change of policy is in
Speaker 1: the latest in the series of U turns the government
Speaker 1: has made since it came to power, including climbed downs
Speaker 1: on welfare reforms. We just winter field payments and inheritance taxes.
Speaker 1: So okay, there's no no more mandatory ID. But I
Speaker 1: guess we're being id in different ways anyway, aren't we.
Speaker 1: So I don't think that would be difficult to keep
Speaker 1: snooping on us. The benefit system now can go into
Speaker 1: your bank account. You can see where you've been, where
Speaker 1: you're going to, what you spend, if you spent it reasonably. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's terrible. Let's know what you think to this, did
Speaker 1: you idea gone? The people in the background there were
Speaker 1: waving the flags because are happy. It's a UTAHN and
Speaker 1: the people power. It's in our DNA to win. The
Speaker 1: people of the UK are strong. Okay, then take care.
Speaker 1: We'll talk against saying make share, comment and subscribe.
