Something occurred to me about this digital ID so I asked Google if you would need it to claim benefits here. QuoteNo, the new UK digital ID is not mandatory for claiming benefits initially, but it will be mandatory for proving your Right to Work. While not required for welfare payments now, it is expected to be available and integrate with services like childcare and welfare in the future, making it potentially necessary for accessing them. Call me a cynic but I don't think I'll need a crystal ball to predict the outcome.

From November, they want to force 8 MILLION Company Directors into compulsory digital ID, via Companies House - Digital ID by the back door
