If the UK had ID cards, like the Blair government tried to bring in, then people wouldn't try and sneak in then use other people's national insurance numbers etc.

The British government retains full control over its own border controls. Travellers who hold EU passports can’t cross the UK border without having their passport or identity checked, and the same applies for travellers from non-EU countries.
The UK can, and does, perform passport and identity checks at its borders and refuses entry to travellers who do not travel with valid identity documents even if they are from another EU member state.

Border controls are at best a seen to be doing something solution rather than a doing something solution.
