    An update for Pay every UK citizen an unconditional basic income

    Feb 28 2015

    If your annual salary is £14,000, you currently take home £13,200 every year. (after paying 20% income tax)

    With the tax free unconditional basic income you get £7,000 (after paying 50% income tax) + £11,375 (tax free unconditional basic income) taking home £18,375 every year.

    So, with Unconditional Basic Income You're £5,175 a year better off

    That's almost £100 a week!!!!!!!!

  • Do you want a living wage?

    An update for Pay every UK citizen an unconditional basic income

    Feb 27 2015

    Best way to create a living wage is empower workers with the freedom to withdraw their labour at any time, without losing the ability to support themselves financially.

    Then let true free market forces do the rest

  • Free Yourself........

    Feb 27 2015

    Why Give Everyone an Unconditional Basic Income?

    1. Students would be free to study at Uni

    2. Stay at home parents would be free to nurture their own children.

    3. Budding entrepreneurs would be free to develop their ideas and products and help provide the solutions to some of the critical situations we face as a species.

  • green party shows its true colours

    An update for Pay every UK citizen an unconditional basic income

    Feb 24 2015

    "The green party will not provide costings of their citizens income in their manifesto."

    No No No No No

    Sorry but that's an absolute disgrace.

    "Were committed to it, but not enough to commit to how much it will be or how we will raise the money, so basically nice idea but were not that committed at all actually....."

    The green party, just the same as all the other establishment parties.

    I better get chanting because I have no choice now. I simply must raise the £1,200 to stand.

  • Erratum

    An update for Guildford Greenbelt Group Party

    Feb 19 2015

    It has been pointed out by a very helpful Tory borough councillor (Mr Paul Spooner), that the site administrator, (that’s me, Jules C) has misspelled Guildford on the title page. Mr. Spooner has therefore concluded, and circulated by twitter, that because of this understandable error, I and my fellows from GGG are “clowns”. See: https://twitter.com/PaulKGB/status/568346047094902784

    I humbly apologise for this. However, in my defence, I do suffer from a mild form of dyslexia.

    Please rest assured that my condition is not contagious, so it is perfectly safe to donate. 

  • Cameron or Mutch? Who's the Loony?

    An update for Pay every UK citizen an unconditional basic income

    Feb 17 2015

    So.

    David Cameron (Conservative) says....

    "The Unemployed will have to do community work under Tories."

    "Eighteen-to-21-year-olds who have not had a job for six months will lose benefits unless they start apprenticeship or complete community work."

    Eric Mutch (Monster Raving Loony) says...........

    "The best way to create a living wage is empower workers with the freedom to withdraw their labour at any time, without losing the ability to support themselves financially. Then let true free market forces do the rest"

    "Let's pay you and everyone else aged 16 and over an Unconditional Basic Income of £11,375 every year, No Strings Attached and create full employment instead"

    Mutch or Cameron? Who's the Loony?
