"The UK Government has been working in tandem with other world leaders to introduce a social credit system and digital identity. The Government and Bank of England have also been working on a new digital currency in the background to replace cash. Under the plan pushed by the Chancellor Rishi Sunak, cash in people’s pockets would be superseded by a new ‘Britcoin’ digital currency. Your vaccination status will also be linked to your bank card, meaning that unless you keep yourself up-to-date with the latest vaccine, your bank card will be invalidated and you will have no access to your credits." Source - in all newspapers today. Oh, dear, Ross.... Hope all's well with you all in Finlandland and your family visitations went well. Rest assured you are not missing too much here - it is silly busy with people who would far rather be in Marbellla, the weather is strange and we have lots of sick people about. Take care x

If ever there was an advert for Bitcoin (rather than Britcoin), this is it.

I think somebody needs to inform the high street banks. 2 of which have recently placed orders with my sons company, worth around 15 million pounds for cash counting machines.

Being more or less cashless is possible now. With a tap of the phone, Ding! Done! Anyone who is seriously worried is probably a drug dealer who doesn't want transactions tracing. Now, what would be a good cover for selling drugs to kids?

Saw a lady pay in a cafe yesterday using her phone ... still amuses me ... I still struggle with the concept of plastic !
There's no doubt the past twelve months or so has advanced the cause of plastic over cash ... I wonder if now we are opening up the balance may swing back a little.
I have certainly gone back to cash for small purchases again.

The problem with any established payment system is that government have the opportunity to steal your money.
