Support Allowance

After the scandal around Employment and Support Allowance, we may dare to hope that the Universal Basic Income will be set at such a level as to accommodate even severe disability. But for everyone. 

Things are only as bad as they are because they might soon be as good as they could be. After Universal Credit, the Universal Basic Income.

As an utterly middle-class person, Universal Credit is the most utterly middle-class arrangement of which I have ever even heard, despite being intended, at least in the main, for an entirely different section of society.

Monthly payment into the bank (the what?) is practically a foreign language to the people under discussion. Dare we hope that the Universal Basic Income will be paid weekly and in cash, to everyone?

But seriously, if that isn't, another hung Parliament is coming, and our people need to hold the balance of power in it. My crowdfunding page is here, or email davidaslindsay@hotmail.com for other options. That address accepts PayPal.
