We don't they ask some European partners? Some have great ID systems. In The Netherlands we have DigiD, which was developed by a government organization and works very well. IIRC Estonia als has a digital identity system that works well.
It's verboten in UK politics to acknowledge that any EU country might be doing something well and to consider copying it. Only America can be used as a model.
Because the UK gov doesn't want a system like theirs.
You don't need to keep Europsplaining to Brits. We aren't all idiots. We know you have ID cards etc and we know about Estonia.
Also if we reject one your ideas, it's not always because we misunderstood it - we can understand it AND think it's a bad idea. I know that often hurts the egos of Germans, the French and the Dutch ;(!
It's funny because it's often Europeans not understanding British politics...the irony ;)
Don't feel like you are getting Eurosplained. I say the same thing when our government does something stupid where it could learn from any other country in the world (there is plenty of that).

Please explain why Oracle ID would be better than one of the existing governmental/nonprofit systems. Genuinely curious.
