What Now! No Card? No More Work In UK

Global countries have been taking pretty significant policies against immigration and we have a new addition to the list in the form of the United Kingdom.

The UK government, under Prime Minister Keir Starmer, has announced plans to introduce a new digital ID system called the “Brit Card.” This card will be used by employers to check the legal status of people before giving them a job. The idea is that without this digital ID, no one will be able to work in the UK.

The main purpose of the Brit Card is to stop illegal immigration and ensure that only people with the right to live and work in the UK can get jobs.

The government says this will make it harder for illegal workers to find employment and reduce the problem of undocumented migrants.

However, this move has already sparked a debate. Supporters believe it will bring order to the job market and protect genuine workers. But critics argue that the system could raise privacy issues, create technical challenges, and possibly cause unfair treatment of some people. Leaders like Nigel Farage and Jeremy Corbyn have openly criticized the plan.

The government insists that legal immigrants and British citizens need not worry, as the new system is aimed only at illegal workers. Still, many questions remain about how it will be put into practice.
