DIGITAL IDs: "Oh no! That's really bad"

We don’t need to be paranoid about Digital ID - we just need to learn from recent history

Though many would prefer to sweep it all under the carpet now, in 2021-22 we actually had a "Papers Please" society in the UK

Tony Blair and others told us this was our "new normal"

After huge pushback, we don't have that any more... but the threat of digital control never went away

If we don't actively shape the future, others will

LOCKDOWN: "I think it was pointless"

Five years on, and we’re still feeling the effects

We needed open debate at the time but were denied it

"We have to rein in meddling councils... overbearing & unaccountable"

"Should formal limits be put on (them)? Do locals need charter of rights? It’s high time we had constitutional-style conversation about role & reach of the town hall"

CENSORSHIP: Latest push by EU a "fundamental battle over who gets to decide what's true, what's allowed & who gets to speak online"

"We need to defend principle that more speech, not less, is answer to bad ideas"

We don't want EU or Ofcom censoring public

ASSISTED SUICIDE BILL:

"There are people we all know in our lives - those who are shy, have low self-esteem with demons within them, they are often poor and vulnerable"

Despite promises of world-leading safeguards, the Committee stage has stripped out key protections, making the Bill riskier for the vulnerable

(Robert Jenrick)

CASH - "It's about control"

Keeping cash as a payment option helps preserve privacy and autonomy for all

#CashIsFreedom #ResistDigitalControl

APPLE: "I think it's a violation of privacy"

It is not right for our government to have access to our private information. We must fight back against mass surveillance and the monitoring of our everyday lives.

We can push back against governmental overreach, but only if we work #together

If we don’t shape the digital future - who will?

From digital ID to surveillance to cash payments, we’ve drafted a Digital Bill of Rights - built with Together members, for everyone

Before we launch the full campaign, we want your feedback

Watch the video with Alan Miller and Rob and help shape what’s next

"Cash-strapped NHS trusts hand former PM Tony Blair's tech pal Larry Ellison £1.5bn contract"

Huge digital health records contract follows Tony Blair Institute report advocating single patient record

Ellison has funded Tony Blair Institute with £200m

We saw many turn a blind eye to attacks on our freedoms & liberties over the past few years

As in this story from Molly Kingsley, "everyone looked down"

Keep pushing back

We are always stronger and better #together

LOCKDOWN: "Would you repeat
lockdown?" - "NO!"

To even question the Covid response at the time was to
risk being smeared, censored, attacked, and vilified -
but we’re still feeling the impacts today

From lockdown harms to the side effects and deaths
from the COVID jab, the damage is ongoing

Stand #together to ensure it can never happen again

LTNs: They raised £50k to fight council – & won

"Ruling sends clear signal to councils nationwide: communities will no longer tolerate top-down, poorly conceived schemes that ignore local input (&) prioritise revenue over real solutions" - West Dulwich Action Group

ASSISTED SUICIDE BILL:

"We know a number of people, in practical terms, don’t have control over their lives and will be at particular risk from (the Assisted Suicide Bill)"

NET ZERO: "We are going to have a mass awakening on Net Zero and the harm and damage it's going to cause" (Ben Leo)

Britain's Net Zero policy has already been disastrous for the public

It will get far worse unless we speak up now

NET ZERO: "Money straight down the drain"

Net Zero policies are hurting us now. For a quarter century, British govts have brought in measures supposed to reduce CO2 emissions. These all end up restricting economic output & hurting living standards

Say No to Net Zero #together

#NetZero #TaxpayerMoney

“Your whole world, your permission to travel is going to be on your phone, & that’s the only way you’re going to get around”

Simon Calder positively giddy about what to many sounds like a nightmare

In 2021 he wrote of vaccine passports “may I suggest we all get used to the idea?”

ASSISTED SUICIDE BILL: "Incredibly dangerous if this bill is passed"

This Bill gives sweeping powers, yet minimal scrutiny

The Bill hands broad authority to Ministers and legal practitioners with almost no parliamentary or judicial oversight - effectively a blank cheque

"What the hell is going on?" (Harry Miller)

A 12-year-old was referred to the anti-terrorism police for posting a video on TikTok saying he 'stands against non-binary and trans'

CASHLESS SOCIETY: "It’s complete totalitarianism!"

When you remove physical money, you open the door for banks, governments, and unelected institutions to impose even more control

Every transaction becomes trackable

Every purchase, traceable

Let's not sleepwalk into a dangerous future
