Starmer defends digital ID work check plans

|January 15, 2026
SIR Keir Starmer has insisted there “will be checks” on the right to work in the UK, and “they will be digital and they will be mandatory’, as he faced fire in the Commons over a U-turn on the UK Government's flagship digital ID plans.

Ministers had also suggested digital ID could be used to provide access to UK Government services, including welfare and childcare.
