Why does it contribute less to the economy? Surely staff who don't commute will save the money and spend it on a holiday or an extension etc ?

Or just paying our mortgages as some of us (and/or) our spouses have seen hours/wages cut. This is a crock of sh*t aimed at getting landlords' now redundant office space rented out. Shameful

Alternatively, work out how to properly tax large businesses (and HNWIs) who avoid tax in order to fund UBI

I’m confused to as to how commuting contributes to the economy.

Because most journalists are economically illiterate and have not heard of Bastiat’s broken windows fallacy, of which this is an excellent example.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=erJEaFpS9ls …

Working from home earns people two hours per day, as well as more money. Taxing them more for it is madness. How they spend the extra money they’ll have is their choice. Shall we tax people who bring packed lunches because they’re not helping their local Pret?

No, it's a bollocks idea from a company wanting to save money. WFH means spending more in the local economy, not on commuting. Or using it for longer term gains rather than overpriced sandwiches. Whilst still contributing as much to the economy in productivity.

Alternatively if in working from home you support local shops and independents, while doing 3.5 extra productive hours work every day, disincentivising that seems bonkers

Yes, at a time when people are struggling and being forced to work from home, let’s tax them even more. Genius...
