Background
Halt the "Brit Card". Linking it to healthcare, housing, and benefits risks misuse of personal data, threatens civil liberties, and will not solve illegal immigration. Centralising info digitally could cause unforeseen problems. The UK has a long tradition of freedoms pre-dating the Magna Carta, which this app could undermine. We are governed and policed by consent, not by force, and this represents government overreach and a serious threat to personal autonomy and privacy.
