The ID card would be stored on a smartphone and linked to government records, according to think tank proposals

My worry about this idea is that it would be a requirement for you to have the ID on you at all times. I hate the thought that you basically have to have your id on you wherever you go just in case the police stop you. I know realistically you’re likely to have your phone on you anyway but still.
If it’s also a requirement, would the government have a scheme to help people buy a phone if they can’t afford one?
