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?

£1600 per month x 45 million adults in the UK = a new cost of £864bn per year.
In the last financial year, total UK tax revenue was £1,017bn.
So you'd need to increase taxes by 85% to pay for this. Who would bother working in this scenario? And then how would the UBI be funded?
I strongly suspect that aside from NGO’s, UBI’s main source of funding is the WEF and the world bank, not the U.K. taxpayer - and at some future point, the WEF will want its money back with interest, forcing national governments to implement their policies regardless of how it affects the citizens of those nations - aside from the U.K., it’s totally obvious that the Irish government is bought and paid for by the WEF as leaders are selected not elected, problem reaction solution, once freedoms are taken away they are never given back, democracy is an illusion, infiltration via the long March through the institutions - all politicians are pointless now and there is no political solutions
Class War; benefitting the Political Class.
Plus, there's the possibility of it being juxtaposed with the Mark of the Beast.
People are supposed to work for a living, not for a system or ideology. However, most major job applicants hark on about jobs 'being in line with my values'.
Benefits became a way-of-life. And the only other way to earn money, there, is to sell drugs.
It all began in the Sixties, whenever Working Class Pride became a Battle-Cry. Especially from those who did make money; such as John Lennon, and Tony Wilson.
Easy money led to the debauchment of the currency; at the behest of the American Empire.
