I had to apply for a new driving licence because the old one was paper and had almost fallen apart. It cost £20 for a photocard licence.
As part of the process I had to register with the Government Gateway. “The Government Gateway is the website you use to register for online government services. It is an important part of the government’s strategy of delivering ‘joined up’ government, enabling people to communicate and make transactions with government from a single point of entry.”
I can now use a single User ID and Password for multiple online government services. They send you a User ID card.

Reading between the lines, I think you’re saying they made you resit the test after you drove ino that poor post office van.
I still have a paper licence, it says it’s valid till I’m an old man.
Rods! Soon we’ll all have a wee card with all our details on it. The free bus pass is part of this fandangle. Then when it comes the time to cull the old codgers … they’ll know where you are. Make sure your campervan is ready for a quick exit!! Hotboy
Don’t you have an embedded chip in your arm?
