As well as being a comedian, I was also one of the main victims of Identity Theft in the UK. As a result of the crime I lost everything and became penniless and homeless. This is why I'm against Digital ID.
Here's an example of what I went through to try and clear my name...

I’m very proud of my show at @edfringe. It’s the most personal one I’ve ever performed. Although it partially deals with #depression and #dementia it’s really funny too (according to audience reviews 😊). If you’re at the festival, I’d love you to see it.

The Quatermass Experiment began 72 years ago today. I have written a book about it. Do buy it: I think it has turned out pretty well -

To protect their hearing and prevent fatigue, astronauts often wear noise-canceling headphones or custom-molded earplugs
