Reminder that quite a lot of disabled people are literally not allowed to have a driving license, not even a provisional driving license.
And that if you develop certain medical conditions, you may be legally required to surrender your driving license, and therefore not have a driving license any more.
I feel like driving licenses shouldn& #39;t be considered valid ID in anything not pertaining to operating a vehicle.
An example: Say there& #39;s an election a week from now. You have a head injury, and two hours later have a seizure. Legally you are required to notify DVLA and surrender your driving licence. You now have less than a week, while recovering from an injury, to get a passport.
Getting an awful lot of people saying "omg you don& #39;t have general ID cards, you should have general ID cards" and hi, Tony Blair, please report to the Hague.
The solution isn& #39;t more forms of ID, it& #39;s abolishing situations where ID is called for.

Like come on, for the love of god, if your solution to inaccessible voting from voter ID laws is "more ID", I don& #39;t know what to say to you.
The alternative suggestion for making voter ID laws fairer is to start a conspiracy theory that driving licenses and passports contain Chinese 5 G chips that make you trans, to balance out the good people who are disenfranchised.
