    They took their time working this ****er out, the pompous virtue signalling twats. Let's hope the other gobshites wake up and realise it too. Who knows, they even look more closely and realise that blacks weren't the only ones made slaves, and whites were not the only slavers, and the trans-Atlantic trade was just a small aspect of the whole thing.

    I doubt many white folk will be demanding special privilege or compensation on the back of it.

    It wasn’t just slaves who suffered to power the Industrial Revolution, admits English Heritage

    English Heritage will address the poor conditions endured by British workers in mills after facing criticism for only focusing on the cotton industry’s links to slavery.

    English Heritage will now address the conditions faced by British mill workers after being criticised of showing a “monomoniacal focus on the slave trade” at the expense of including information on the other harms of the Industrial Revolution.

    No it's starting with Covid passports to visit Europe and will be interlinked with a social credit score , medical information and finances tracking etc.


    You need a drivers license to join a Library or open a bank account to prove you are who you say you are to return the books and be responsible for any credit from your bank, so voter I d is completely different.

    The suspicion that everyone is culpable, doesn't make for a just society.

    ID's to get a library book... I'm not sure how true that is but, theoretically, it discourages those who don't have ID, like kids, from getting books.

    ID's to open a ban account, is so the Govt can keep tabs on your deposits and withdrawals, so they can tax you and fund themselves, their civil servants and keep their foot on your neck.

    Just because a few bad apples abuse the voting system doesn't mean the vast majority of folk are.

    If I had a car rental company, I would probably want some identification before handing over the keys to a £30k saloon .

    The same for drivers , we can't just take people's words for it that they can drive .

    No video Library would let you rent a video without photo I d.


    I doubt you can even join a gym without photo identification.

    You can't enrol kids in school, doctors or dentists without identification.


    The Chinese citizen card/social credit system was invented in America and trialled in China .

    The EUROPEAN UNION already have theirs in place .

    Most EUROPEANs carry their EUROPEAN UNION I d everywhere and use it instead of a passport.

    But what does the ID achieve?

    To rent a car, you need an ID but that doesn't stop someone from stealing the car or crashing the car... so achieves very little.

    We can take people's word that they can drive. It's not in their interest to pretend they can drive and licenses doesn't stop drivers driving badly.

    My kids didn't need ID to go to school or dentists.

    I've tried to engage in this philosophical point about laws too.

    Has a law ever discouraged you from doing something illegal?

    I seem to recall that the bombers on mainland Europe all had valid ID cards.

    Voter ID is to stop crazed lefties voting more than once
    Sensible people dont think dead people should be allowed to vote
    Crazed lefties think dead people have a human right to vote

    Everything you do , unless you live off grid , is tracked and traced .

    if you logon to your phone using Face ID , they have your facial features mapped.

    Use a fingerprint to open phone , mapped your fingerprint .

    Your phone, laptop and mobile devices are tracking and logging your every move or action (‘I use VPN’ and ?)

    use a passport to travel , they have your important data .

    scan your passport to access security gates , facial recognition technology captured .

    go to the doctors for blood tests , logged and categorised .

    complete online applications, logged and categorised.

    We are just big data to the elite and those in charge .

    A digital ID will just hold all that data in one place .

    Digital currency is the step that will ensure every penny you spend is legal and every penny you earn is taxable .

    It's only really a problem in England with Muslims and University campuses fraudulently ballot stuffing Labour votes.

    The Democrats are allowing illegals dead people and pets to vote that's why Biden is the most popular President in US history.


    Apparently black people are too stupid to figure out how to get identification which is extremely condescending and false .

    Lefties treat blacks like their pets with no agency.

    That's still mainly opt in .

    If you pay cash and don't use a smart phone then you can live pretty anonymously.


    The Chinese social credit system is forced on everyone and linked to biometric face recognition to track them in real time with cameras on every street.

    They get deducted points for littering and not paying bills on time , antisocial behaviour or anti government rhetoric.

    The social credit lined up for us will demand we use correct pronouns for trannies and gain or lose points for wrong think.

    If you ever look up your family tree, it's amazing what information is out there, even in the days before digitalisation.
