the UK government has slipped another bill to destroy childrens rights and digital privacy under the radar
It's called the "Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill"
It will force every child with an NHS number to have a single unique identifier id across platforms, without consent from neither children nor parents.
It will have sensitive information such as health and education records linked to it, which would make leaks highly dangerous, and these could potentially be used for police profiling.
It's currently in the house of lords
Here's what you can do about it:
If you're British, sign this petition:

And don't shut up about this!! The more ppl that know, the better.

Petition: Withdraw the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill
We call on the Government to withdraw the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill. We believe it downgrades education for all children, and undermines educators and parents. If it is not withdrawn, we believe it may cause more harm to children and their educational opportunities than it helps
