No one in this country lives on £48 a week.

OK, £58 per week. Try that for a few weeks and you'll understand what insanity is. Single claimant aged under 25: £251.77 per month.https://www.turn2us.org.uk/Benefit-guides/Universal-Credit/How-much-Universal-Credit-will-I-get …

£58 wouldn’t even cover Julia’s wine for a week.

Already trialled in Finland, already failed & halted in Finland. Rewarding fecklessness doesn't work in Finland or the UK

Does this come from the same source as this free magic money we get from the EU? Also - if Extinction Rebellion are correct and we are all going to be dead in 20 years.. let's just borrow shedloads and blow the lot.

Absolutely brilliant idea that would massively boost the economy and help the millions in poverty. And.. we can easily afford it.

simplifying the tax & benefits system radically would help a lot, save the money on admin frees it up to give to the people, increase basic income by using it to replace benefits money too. would put the right incentives in the system, but would need politicians to stop meddling.

How does giving everyone £48pw 'tackle inequality'? Those that want to work will still earn what they earn, the rest will be slightly worse off as this is less than JSA. So lots of tax, lots of admin costs and no discernable benefit. Jobs for plodders in public sector is all
