UK’s Keir Starmer MANDATES Digital ID for Right To Work

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced on September 26, 2025, at the Global Progress Action Summit in London, that a new free-of-charge digital ID scheme—dubbed the "BritCard"—will become mandatory for proving the right to work by the end of the current Parliament in 2029, aiming to dismantle illegal migration networks and deter undocumented workers by replacing easily faked paper checks with secure digital verification.
