Looks like it's been trialled for everyone. Not sure I agree with the principle of UBI to be honest. For a start of some people don't earn £1,600 for their monthly wages.

I just looked online and it says that £800 is the average Universal Credit payment for a single person for rent and living expenses So this proposal will double that What is the incentive to work? But i guess it will kick start the economy Especially for iPhones, huge TVs, tattoos and drugs/alcohol I'll buy shares in Wetherspoons & Spice....could double my money overnight Edited June 5, 2023 by Jack Grey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
