πŸ’· Canada has shown that unconditional cash appears to reduce homelessness. 🏑 People spend the money on housing, clothing, food and transport - not drugs and alcohol. @AndyBurnhamGM #GreaterManchester needs its own UBI pilot on #homelessness. Article https://t.co/LrRoeHcQJ4

Seven years ago today, @MerseyFabians held a discussion on UBI. Since then, it's an idea that has entered the mainstream. Along with a four-day working week, Land Value Tax, banning zero hours contracts & regulating the gig economy, these are policies that need taking seriously.

#LetsTryUBI I recently read a report on the Southern Ontario #UniversalBasicIncome pilot. https://t.co/mcHu049Tr8 Here's a thread with stories from participants. β€œI slept like a baby, I was smiling and happy for once. I didn’t look like I was about to cry because I’m broke.”

How do we pay for a #BasicIncome? Read this Conversation with @Geoff_Crocker that lays out the arguments for using debt-free sovereign money. What do you think? https://t.co/osRHiiVZZs
