UK’s new Prime Minister will scrap digital ID plans.
Andy Burnham has now officially replaced Keir Starmer, and is reportedly planning to drop his predecessor’s plans to introduce a government-issued digital ID for all British adults by 2029. Burnham’s spokesperson told BBC News that resources allocated for the scheme will instead go towards “helping with the cost of living.” [Link: Burnham to scrap digital ID to focus on 'helping with cost of living' | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y08z25q8eo | BBC News]
