Yes actually having a job is actually an easy life compared to having to steal and live on the edge of society. That is a generalist view I know. Most humans try to bring up their family in the best location they can find, it has been that way since history began.

If you listen you radio 4, you and yours programme then they explained that criminals are using random addresses so illegal people can get jobs. In France this cannot happen as they have the ID card. So criminals come here for an easy life.

I think if the BritId deters the cheats and the criminals then I am happy to have an ID. It would make job situations easier as at the moment they ask for paper utility bills and bank statements which just don't exist these days and easy to fake anyway.

Most senior manners are extroverts who find it very difficult to work from home. If they employed introverts more work would be done for cheaper as no office required and less inane conversations.
