Christopher Hope speaks with Labour MP Samantha Niblett and Conservative MP Damian Hinds about the government’s developing plans for a UK digital identity system. The discussion covers public concerns about privacy, data security, state overreach, and the potential impact on public services, immigration enforcement, and trust in government institutions.

The episode also examines rural policy, farming and inheritance tax reforms, as well as community initiatives surrounding men’s mental health. Additional topics include the role of technology in public service delivery, historic debates on national identity systems, and comparisons with previous attempts to introduce ID cards in the United Kingdom.

This podcast provides an in-depth look at competing political views, the evolving policy landscape, and the implications for citizens as the government begins consultation on digital identification proposals.
