Digital ID for every adult is not progress. It is the end of a free society dressed up as convenience.

I am a cyber security specialist. This is my take.

They are selling it as a fix for illegal migration. That is bollocks.

We spend hundreds of billions a year on cyber security and yet the volume of breaches is breaking records. The threat is growing faster than the spend.

Digital ID will not stop boats. It will not stop trafficking gangs. It will not fix a broken border.

Criminals will work around it.

Honest citizens will pay the price.

It builds giant data banks that track where you go, what you buy, what you read and who you speak to.

It links your identity to every checkpoint in daily life.

One breach and your life is exposed.

Look at Jaguar Land Rover and the airports in recent weeks. Now imagine that at national scale on an ID system tied to everything you need to live your daily life.

Here is the risk that ministers will not admit.

Ransomware seeded through a supplier or an insider:

It lies quiet for months.
It rolls through the backups.
On trigger day the register and the recovery sets are both encrypted.

Payments fail. Health and benefits stall. Borders slow. Citizens are frozen out until a ransom is paid or the state rebuilds from scratch.

Centralise identity and you centralise failure.

Do not fall for the pitch.
Function creep is certain.
It starts as login.

It becomes access to money, travel, speech and public services.

It turns rights into permissions controlled by the state and its contractors.

It creates a single point of failure for criminals, insiders and hostile states to target.

It will punish the elderly, the poor and anyone who is not always online.

It will centralise risk and outsource blame.

It will not stop fraud.

It will not stop illegal migration.

It will build the machinery for a social credit system by stealth.

If ministers cared about the border, they would enforce current laws, resource patrols and processing, close loopholes and remove those with no right to stay.

You do not need a national ID to do any of that.

We scrapped ID cards in 2010 for a reason.

Britain does not need a central register to prove age or status.

Yes to privacy first proofs. No to a database state.

I understand that there is a new incoming Prime Minister of Japan - congratulations Sir.

But whatever happens, can we the British people beg you to keep your Ambassador @AmbJapanUK in place

He is one of the only sources of joy in our lives - the best ambassador ever 🇬🇧❤️🇯🇵

[Hiroshi Suzuki @AmbJapanUK]

Eccles cakes are the best!! 😄

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@AmbJapanUK I love this guy! Glad you're enjoying the UK.

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@restisents But this is almost the opposite to the prediction/viewpoint of you both in that podcast? Your Twitter person should prob listen before posting... Can we have an update?

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@EmmanuelMacron Eh?

Silver Ford hatchback.
NA56 560YD

That’s what the scumbags were driving.

My computer was seen in Cricklewood. My keys were around Golder’s Green or Boreham Wood.

REWARD FOR ANY INFO.

Plates are false. But that’s what they were driving.

[Adam Richman @AdamRichman]

Well - the entire crew of season two of #AdamRichmanEatsBritain has just been robbed. We were driving from Birmingham to London, stopped at a rest, stop in Barnet for exactly 4 1/2 minutes to use the restroom, and came back to our van completely cleaned out.
All of the filming equipment is gone.
Both of my suitcases with all of my possessions are gone.
Backpack with my laptop and all of my medications are gone .
And to make matters worse, because I have trackers on some of my possessions, and because of my laptop, I can see where these things are. But we have to wait here for the police. The rest stop won’t release the security footage until the police arrive.
It’s been almost an hour.
I’m going to share a few of the locations where I can see my possessions.
Reward for anything found.

@jeremycorbyn The new Left HATES the working class, mate.

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@DawnButlerBrent What the actual fuck!? This is absolutely mental for a sitting MP to post. Im shocked.

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@Aiannucci @Gallahad93 Your conduct on here has really changed my opinion of you. Another performative Hollywood mouthpiece, espousing 'compassion' while wilfully ignoring (in order to 'own Elon' 🙄)why normal people across America, the UK & Europe are fed up with your ilk. Grow up.

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@libsoftiktok 'Dissidance' 🙄

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@ByDonkeys Why aren't you focusing on the current government?

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@Rothmus People were told to think that it was deep, powerful and cool.... so they thought that. 🙄

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@TwisterFilm @PGourtsoyannis @STVNews Didn't even meander anywhere near answering the question 🙄 Ridiculous

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

Looking ahead to winter is frightening.

I’ve met pensioners who have no idea how they’ll heat their homes. Parents who will have to skip meals so their kids can eat.

The Tories are too busy fighting each other to notice.

Labour has a plan that meets the scale of this crisis.

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@Aiannucci Are you hoping to get a Buzzfeed article dedicated to your 'epic Musk takedowns?' What happened to you? Its getting cringe.

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@jazzarou What show is this? So many legends

[Simon Green @SighGee]

@Max_Lovelock Ahh shit. Am gonna download Tiktok lol. She must be so proud.
