00:00We oppose the introduction of mandatory digital ID cards.
00:03We don't want to be a kind of society where people might be stopped in the street
00:06and asked for their papers, whether that's physical ones or on a smartphone.
00:10And that is not the way to stop the boats.
00:12The fact is Keir Starmer has rushed out this policy as a smokescreen
00:15for all the problems he's facing.
00:18For his failure to stop the boats and control immigration,
00:20for the disastrous impact his government is having on the economy,
00:23all his scandals with Angela Rayner and Peter Mandelson and Morgan McSweeney,
00:27the leadership contest he's facing from Andy Burnham.
00:30He's just trying to distract from all of that, and it's not the right answer.
