Stop mandatory Digital ID that attacks Christian faith and observance.

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

Mandatory Digital IDs are incompatible with commonly held Christian theology. Parliament must provide exemptions on religious grounds so believers are not forced to act against conscience or compromise their faith to access essential services.

Many Christians believe Revelation 13 warns against compulsory systems of identification tied to buying and selling. To accept such a system would, in their conscience, be to deny Christ. Mandatory Digital ID is incompatible with Christian faith. Forcing compliance would breach Article 9 of the Human Rights Act 1998, which protects freedom of thought, conscience and religion. Parliament must provide exemptions so Christians can live faithfully without exclusion from society.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

The UK Government has said that it will not be compulsory to obtain a digital ID, but that it will be mandatory for some applications.
