The Starmer government is REALLY running scared of this petition, now at 2.75 million, to the extent that it has responded 3 months early, in a transparent attempt to spike it.

So please, under no circumstances should you sign it and share it widely. Starmer & his boss McSweeney would not like it.

Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards

We demand that the UK Government immediately commits to not introducing a digital ID cards. There are reports that this is being looked at.

Please comment/share freely, so these under-underground artists from <1 and elsewhere get more of the recognition they deserve. We've got to break out of our silos.

When government censorship puts the kibosh on people expressing their opinions, time to go underground & get Whistling – just like they did during WW2, Ancient Athens, & various historical occupations.

Please check out Egberto Willies. His interviews and commentary are spot on brilliant and informative!

We will beat fascism. It's not about false optimism. It's about your power.

I am hearing too much doom and gloom. But everything that has happened those far proves that you will decide whether America chooses fascism or freedom.
