Constant change is here to stay… Labour scraps plans for compulsory digital ID Migrants will no longer need to show identity cards to prove right to work following latest about-turn Labour has abandoned plans for compulsory digital ID for workers despite previously insisting that it was key to tackling illegal immigration. Migrants will no longer be forced to show virtual identity cards to prove their right to work under the proposals. All other parts of the scheme, due to be introduced in 2029, are already set to be voluntary. It represents Labour’s 11th about-turn since entering office. In September, Sir Keir Starmer promised that migrants would “not be able to work in the United Kingdom” if they did not have digital ID. In recent weeks, the Prime Minister has backtracked on plans to raise business rates for hospitality firms and watered down his inheritance tax raid on farms.
