Labour — Stoke-on-Trent South

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 December 2025

Debate

Digital ID

Contribution

I acknowledge the strength of feeling from the people who signed the petition, but I have a genuine concern that we are not giving the correct level of information for people to say no to. Conflating digital IDs with issues such as jury trials and taxation is doing people no favours; we need to have a calm, rational debate about this one issue so that we can have a reasoned outcome.
