the UK should issue optional self-funding "passport cards" to British citizens

What the petition asks
Many British citizens, while staying in other European countries, risk being fined for failing to carry a national identity card or passport, because the British passport is insufficiently small or durable to carry at all times. Therefore the UK should issue optional self-funding "passport cards".
