Digital "ID Cards" are back in the news after being announced as a requirement for all those working in the UK.

In a special episode of the DigitalLawUK Podcast devoted to Digital ID Cards we look at:

- The history of ID Cards in the UK - how we had them during wartime

- Why they were withdrawn in the 1950s

- What happened to the ID cards that were supposed to be introduced 20 years ago?

- Which countries have ID cards now?

- How they can facilitate access to UK Gov Services

- What existing measures could be enforced to control who can and cannot work in the UK without introducing an expensive new scheme?

- Why is the UK Government looking to introduce ID cards right now?

- What are the data security risks of the new Digital ID Cards scheme?

- How long will this take?

- How have public attitudes shifted to our use of our personal data and how the public gives away their personal data online every day?
