Don't know how many of you have heard about the small trial of this? Its only a few people but they are given a no questions asked payment of £1600pm for two years on the trial.
I am sure I am not the old one whi thinks this would massivley change their life? I work 38 hours a week and only take home about £1850pm, and every one of those hours is a total slog and a battle againt ASD. I would take 6 months-1 year off and then probably do some voulenteer work doing something I love. Sadly I can't see it coming in any time soon but his would be a game changer for anybody with mental heath issues and physical disabilities. Of course that works as long as there is not massive inflation to go with it and prices remain stable.
What are your thoughts?

Yes, I have heard of it.
Apparently more people got jobs they wanted quicker as they relaxed and went for their dreams or else took time to get better quals or do an intern and ultimately do better.
They were healthier and more productive.
Yes I heard about that. It would take away the stigma of being poor, and dismantle the whe punitive aparatus that is there to justify the punitive aporoach ro welfare.
