Keir Starmer faced a furious backlash on Thursday over 'dystopian' plans to force millions of adults to sign up for a digital ID card.
Government sources said the Prime Minister will use a speech on Friday to claim the controversial plan could help stop the boats after his failed attempt to 'smash the gangs' led to a surge in crossings.
Civil liberties groups on Thursday branded the introduction of a 'papers please' society 'un-British' - and warned that older and vulnerable people could be 'locked out' from essential services.
And critics warned the proposal, pushed by Tony Blair and Emmanuel Macron, would do nothing to halt the surge in illegal migration.
Experts have warned the scheme will cost billions of pounds to develop - and could leave the personal details of millions of people vulnerable to hackers and state-sponsored cyber attacks.
Nigel Farage said the plan would 'make no difference to illegal immigration, but it will be used to control and penalise the rest of us. The state should never have this much power.'
Kemi Badenoch branded the idea a 'a desperate gimmick that will do nothing to stop the boats', while Tory justice spokesman Robert Jenrick said Sir Keir would 'try literally anything other than fixing the root of our problems: our broken legal system that stops us deporting illegal migrants.'
Whitehall sources said the scheme was likely to apply initially to all working adults, who would have to use the card to prove their identity in order to work in this country.
But both critics and opponents expect any scheme to be rapidly extended to cover a range of public services, requiring everyone in the country to eventually sign up for digital ID.

Just wait
Your Carbon Account will be as closely monitored as the VAT tax.
To Big Brother, everything a person does involves "carbon."*
Long ago the Left substituted, simplified carbon dioxide to just "carbon."
Everything you purchase involves carbon. From the manufacturing to the transportation. Any kind of traveling involves "carbon." Even if you only use a bicycle, the bicycle manufacturers use the evil "carbon."
Just imagine your daily, weekly, monthly, annual, and yes, lifetime "carbon" allotment.
If you exceed your daily, monthly allotment, you can 'borrow' from your annual and lifetime allotment. If you borrow so much, you exceed your lifetime allotment..... Oh, well. Other, younger people "need" it more. Time for you to go.
*-I wonder if they are even teaching that 99.9999999% of all life on Earth is carbon-based.
Perhaps UK citizens will need papers to travel outside of their home village and show them upon demand from police?

They’re begging us to send Trump to ‘’save them’’.
You Tube is almost entirely made up of Brits posting videos about the state of the UK and they’re begging and pleading for us to ‘’invade us, please America just take us over!’’.
Never thought I’d see the day that the Brits would ask us to invade them.

Orwell’s future is here.
First of all, perfectly stated.
Secondly, Farage has impressed me how he, once Starmer completed his coup, has measured what he says, in order to become the future Prime Minister.
In the Commonwealth, rhetoric is all -- which has devolved them to this point, but also can be harnessed by people (and presidents) who know how to persuade (TrumpII!) -- this Orwellian 'give us your papers and the name of your contacts' nightmare, Labour means to have it, and Labour means to give the Mint factory to the PLA.
Sturmwerm is also rapidly generating a 'Brex-in' vote to rejoin the EU, and if he is allowed to remain, he will succeed. The cheating is assured, and the DigitalID is part-and-parcel of the cheat.
Whatever can be done to 'sweep-the-legs' of Labour must be done now, before the holiday drone of PartySec numbs everyone to the necessary change of power.
