Want to renew you UK drivers license & avoid One Login?

1. Take your DVLA renewal reminder letter & current photocard to a Post Office. Pay the fee.

2. Get a D1 application pack from the Post Office & send the details to DVLA with the fee.

Both processes - three week wait

[FUTURE NOT SET @Future_Not_Set]

🚨 UK digital drivers licenses [mDLs] are almost ready for national deployment.

The process would involve going through One Login [digital ID verification] to onboard with the https://t.co/iq8FAnhgel Wallet.

Our advice? Stick with the physical card.

@Jess4Lowestoft In a democratic society, protecting children and upholding civil liberties can exist alongside each other. Your govt is failing in that regard with its actions to ID verify & age-gate the internet.

Protecting children begins with adults, not the state.

[FUTURE NOT SET @Future_Not_Set]

@freddienew @TryMapleAI Good luck to them and their 'Connect' system trying to access a local model run on a separate air-gapped machine. Whoops, did we say that?

@Vampfree1110228 Get a Pixel device, version 8 or higher [not a Pixel 11] and flash it to GrapheneOS. There's tonnes of helpful setup information online and it's not as hard to do as you think.

[FUTURE NOT SET @Future_Not_Set]

Protecting children & civil liberties are not competing objectives.

A democratic society should be capable of doing both.

Protecting children online does not justify universal surveillance, compulsory ID verification or weakening the privacy & security of everybody's devices.

@freddienew @GrapheneOS Now get that VPN router plugged into your home router with Mullvad and you're in business 😉

[FUTURE NOT SET @Future_Not_Set]

Make it make sense.

One of the groups, The Children's Society, advising Nandy et al, admitted to historic child abuse, covering-up and secret payments to victims in 2017.

Yet they are still allowed to play an advisory role that could have ID verification ramifications for all.

[FUTURE NOT SET @Future_Not_Set]

It would be terrible if Lisa Nandy and HMG knew you could do the following to counter their overreach:

- Buy a Gli-Net Flint 2 router
- Connect it your home internet router
- Use a reputable no-logs VPN service, e.g. Mullvad
- Use the parental controls if you've children

@jessicaelgot Did The Children's Society also advise on these extended restrictions similar to eBay, Vinted, & DePop?

They are in no place to be advising the Minister or Ofcom on regulations that will unnecessarily impact UK adults.

More info on who's advising Ofcom & Lisa Nandy:

- In 2017, The Children's Society admitted a role in historic child abuse following scrutiny from the IICSA

- They had a role in trafficking 3,700 children & issued an apology for abuse carried out in their homes.

@PolitlcsUK A reminder about one of the groups advising Nandy, Ofcom and the govt on eBay, Vinted and DePop.

This is the story from June 2025 highlighting Palantir's proposal to Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire & Cambridgeshire police that has since passed to the tune of £10m.

'Nectar' will require 11 types of special cat. data incl. as many as 80 data sources.

@PolitlcsUK @billcurtis0 We reported on the proposal last June.

Palantir are one of the most dangerous modern companies in existence.

Their UK foothold was built through early intelligence [GCHQ] & defence contracts since 2008 using their Gotham platform.

Throw National ID into the mix & you've a full blown mass surveillance system.

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy has announced that under-16s will be banned from Vinted and eBay because strangers can use their messaging functions to groom children.

The social media ban announced earlier this year will be expanded to cover online marketplaces.

Ofcom research found that almost a fifth of eight to 14-year-olds visit eBay each month, and 15% use Vinted.

But the Children’s Society has warned that some were being asked for indecent photos in exchange for money or gifts on the sites.

[FUTURE NOT SET @Future_Not_Set]

- The charity covered-up their complicity for years & only admitted fault upon scrutiny from the IICSA.

- Damages were paid in the secret to victims.

It's interesting how Channel 4 failed to mention any of this in their segment.

@LBC @Tobias_Ellwood @HenryRiley1 Constitutionally, Elwood should never have been an MP alongside the House of Commons Disqualification Act 1975 and the nature of his active/inactive status with the 77th Brigade. He's nothing more now than a toothless tiger rattling the cage.

- The concern surrounds *underage access* to these platforms, their features and the *potentiality* of grooming without the provision of evidence.

A very important question:

How does a groomer know that an eBay account belongs to a child?

Riddle us that, Lisa Nandy.
