Manuela Perteghella

Liberal Democrat — Stratford-on-Avon

Speaking in the House of Commons on 13 October 2025

Debate

Digital ID

Contribution

EU nationals in the UK were guinea pigs for a digital-only status. Serious concerns are still being raised, including about access issues that resulted in people being wrongly denied work, housing, education and welfare. Extending digital IDs to the British people will result in another layer of mandatory surveillance and loss of privacy. Will the Secretary of State confirm what independent oversight will monitor data breaches, errors and misuse?
