Now up - considering how pilots have worked across the world, including Wales' former First Minister @MarkDrakeford
Kicking off is Guy Standing, who spoke at our meeting in Porth a few years back.
We're at #bien #basicincome #UBI conference in Bath.
Today is UK day, focusing specifically on social security. Looking forward to hearing @MarkDrakeford talk about the #Welsh basic income pilot for those leaving care in Wales.

Important interview. #UBI was covered in Prof Brown's report for the @welshgovernment Review of digital innovation.

Super interesting wide-ranging iv with Geoffrey Hinton… he told Downing St to go for UBI plus, which wouldn’t be “socialism” a practical response to millions disappearing jobs…
also go thru which jobs survive: surgeon? Taxi driver? Plumber? TV interviewer?

We have to implement a sufficient, universal & unconditional #basicincome or society will break at an even faster pace than we see today.

We have economies that need to grow, whether or not they make us thrive. Now we need economies that enable us to thrive, whether or not they grow. Here's what I just wrote about it in @guardian 1/2

Y'know, y'all
"It's not really debt. It's not something that has to be repaid. It's not something that's a burden on our grandchildren...The big question is, is it gonna be inflationary? ...To me, that's the biggest issue."

@markjhooper and @TegidRoberts, not many people from Wales coming or booked online for the Scotonomics festival this year. Anything you can do about that? Remember @derekwalker_ plus LOADS more at the festival! scotonomics.scot/festival-of…

There's a belief that being unemployed means you're not contributing to society. What if we redefine 'work' as anything that enriches our lives? Parenting, volunteering, creativity - these are all valuable and shouldn't be overlooked by a system focused solely on paid employment.

The term 'earning your keep' should be outdated by now. In an era where technology could almost entirely replace the need for human labor, why are we still clinging to the idea that one must work for survival? Basic income is not a handout, it's a right here in the 21st century.

.@BarackObama recently told us that we may need to consider a #UBI & a #4DayWeek.
@AndyBurnhamGM has supported arguments for a Basic Income too.
Read my column for @LabourList on why we must be bold & act now to be ahead change like AI & decarbonisation.
