Mandatory Digital ID Is Here! UK Is First Domino To Fall In New Digital Order

"Share this article"

Imagine walking into a grocery store, a bank, or even your doctor's office -- and being told, "Access denied. Digital ID not verified." The lights flash red. A clerk shakes their head. Suddenly, your life is on hold. No money, no rent, no appointments. A small app or card has become the master key to your entire existence. This isn't fiction. It is the path the UK is racing toward.

Just last year, the Labour government promised citizens there would be no return of national identity cards. The idea was politically radioactive -- a symbol of Big Brother surveillance, of a state watching every citizen. Yet now, the government is preparing to announce digital ID mandatory for all adults, transforming a once-unthinkable intrusion into an impending reality.

A sudden and shocking pivot

Until recently, ministers insisted digital identity schemes were off the table. Even after lobbying from senior figures, Labour publicly rejected any plan. Today, however, the "Brit Card" is being promoted as a solution for immigration enforcement, border control, and broader social administration. Such a rapid shift should set off alarm bells.

Why now? The timing is telling. Amid record small-boat crossings, asylum backlogs, and mounting public anxiety, the government seeks a "dramatic" fix. Every adult would hold a digital ID, required to rent, work, or access essential services -- forcing compliance into every corner of life.

Officials have studied Estonia's model, where citizens receive a digital identity at birth, used across banking, voting, healthcare, and taxation. But the UK's system could go far beyond: linking immigration, welfare, banking, housing, healthcare, and commerce into a single, centralized framework.

The hidden dangers

What starts as "convenience" or "security" hides a far darker reality. A compulsory digital ID centralizes unprecedented power over every citizen.

Surveillance and control: Imagine a government with a live map of your daily life: every purchase, every medical appointment, every online comment. Linking all activity to a single ID creates the blueprint for a surveillance society. History shows such powers, once granted, are rarely returned -- from East Germany's Stasi to modern social credit systems.

Exclusion and coercion: A digital ID is not just identification -- it is a gatekeeper. Could a bureaucratic error, algorithmic bias, or political whim prevent you from working, renting, or buying groceries? Society itself becomes contingent on state approval.

Mission creep: Digital IDs rarely remain limited to their original purpose. Welfare, healthcare, taxation, voting, and even private commerce can all become linked. Each integration expands state leverage, inching toward total control.

Digital currency: the perfect storm

Now imagine pairing this system with government-issued digital currency. Every transaction could be monitored, restricted, or frozen in real time. Economic freedom disappears; your ability to buy, sell, or work depends entirely on government consent. Society becomes dependent, traceable, and controllable at the keystroke of the state.

Prophetic parallels

For those who read scripture, the warnings are stark. Revelation 13 describes a time when no one can buy or sell without the mark -- a digital seal of allegiance. Mandatory digital IDs, especially when paired with digital currency, echo this chilling vision. What begins as a "logical" fix for immigration could rapidly evolve into total societal control.

Consider also Daniel's prophecies, which speak of kingdoms that consolidate power, demand allegiance, and suppress dissent. A system that requires every citizen to register digitally, linking identity, finances, and access to resources, mirrors this vision of centralized authority. It is not hard to imagine a world where compliance becomes mandatory, and those who resist are systematically excluded from the economy and society. These prophetic parallels remind us that the forces of control are often gradual, cloaked in the language of convenience, efficiency, or safety -- yet their ultimate purpose is absolute oversight.

The UK as the first domino

Europe will watch the UK closely. If this experiment succeeds, it will likely spread quietly, normalized under the guise of efficiency, safety, or progress. Once citizens submit, rolling it back becomes nearly impossible. What begins as migration enforcement could become the blueprint for global surveillance, economic dependency, and behavioral control.

The choices before us

The danger is here, not in some distant dystopia. Mandatory digital ID, coupled with digital currency, could hand the state absolute control over who can live, work, and buy -- shaping the economy, limiting dissent, and controlling daily life.

The choice is ours: vigilance or submission. Question every "logical" reform that expands state oversight. Demand alternatives that preserve liberty. And heed the prophetic warning: systems that control identity and transactions are the very infrastructure that could lead to the mark of the beast.

Once digital oversight and currency merge, the line between safety and servitude can vanish overnight. The choices made today will echo for generations.

 
We got an article today saying Gold is being bought at record prices, i wonder what's on the horizin to trigger this panic buy ?


Precious metals have historically been a haven against inflation.

"Everyone's" scared, and those selling the gold are feeding the panic to ensure higher prices and quick sales so people don't stop and think first.

However, the Bible tells us:

19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.
Ezekiel 7:19, KJV

1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
James 5:1-3. KJV

1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:
12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,
13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.
15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,
16 And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
Revelation 18:1-19, KJV
 
Yeah i think it was either from a documentary or an article that whenever there's a sudden surge in purchasing gold a big war is about to occur or something bad financially is about to happen ?
Yeah, my understanding too. I added a CBC article done by Reuters, that was similar to yours from Australia. I noticed both articles mentioned uncertainty due to the tariffs creating world wide demand for a safe haven for investments with interest rates low. And the trigger of the US govt shutdown seems to have sparked it some more.

Whenever people fear that currency will lose it's value (or a war will start) they move to gold.

As my late Russian inlaws used to say, Gold is portable, you can always start over again in another country if you quietly convert your assets to gold and take it out with you.
 
OK here's another little clue. China is buying gold like crazy and dumping the US dollar and securities dated as of early August about 2 months ago in the Financial Post. China's central bank extends gold purchases to ninth straight month in July

"Meanwhile, the World Gold Council downgraded its estimate of this year's gold purchases by central banks, but added that the longer-term trend of central banks reallocating from U.S. assets to gold remains intact."

key phrase "Longer term trend of reallocating from US Assets to Gold"

In other words dumping US Treasuries aka bonds which are essentially US debt forcing the US to pay higher interest in the bond markets and or dollars converting that to Gold held inside the central banks including China.

I remember reading somewhere that Russia was also doing something like that. https://www.mining.com/web/russias-embrace-of-gold-eases-loss-of-reserves-frozen-by-war/ popped up when I did a quick search just now.

I think it may be a coordinated effort within BRICS as I thought I read they wanted to force a gold backed digital currency controlled by BRICS. Russia and China just pulled India back into their orbit, and China and India are the 2 most populous nations on Earth.
 
So lets look at the total picture.

Starting with this thread on Digital ID - a fast growing trend world wide. One way to control people.

Economic instability (France is busy having a crisis - they have too rich a social safety net, they are one of the bigger economies in the EU) world wide.

A push for CBDC's.

Britt Gillette is always talking about those, and also a planned crash of the economy (but I'd add only when God allows and He's NOT been allowing it yet) to bring in the Digital currencies that the govts can use to control their citizens. I think he's talked about gold backed CBDCs.

So that makes 2 ways to control people. And if they tie the gold to the CBDCs' individual ownership of gold might be outlawed as it was in the US for some years. I checked,. between 1933 and 1974.

Several other countries did that too. Canada wasn't among them.

But there is such a thing as tokenization meaning you "own" a digital token that entitles you to a certain amount of gold as seen here in this article out today

"This convergence highlights a growing appetite for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, offering a novel blend of gold's enduring stability with the liquidity and transparency of blockchain. While traditional safe-haven assets typically attract demand during turbulent times, the rapid ascent of tokenized gold suggests a new paradigm for hedging against inflation and market volatility, presenting both significant opportunities and complex challenges for the broader financial ecosystem."

Translation- the appetite for a digital currency that is backed by gold is growing- Quickly!

And if govt gets to regulate that Digital currency, your assets are their assets.
