I can't see what the fuss is all about really, I'm sure I heard that you would only need one if you want to work in the UK.

"In the European Union, physical ID cards have existed for decades.
In fact, in all bar two of the EU's 27 member states, physical ID cards, in a standard, machine-readable EU format introduced in 2021, are used both as identity documents in citizens' home countries, and for travel within the passport-free Schengen zone.

It won’t control illegals only those that conform.
Another scam/con by whoever is in power.
