Comments
  • We would support the UK Government rolling out a UBI.
  • "Universal Credit, PIP & Work Capability Assessment all need reformed" In a left-wing, more empathy-based direction yes. Obviously this is what is meant by the questionnaire but "reform" is often used as a euphamism for cuts and making benefits harder to access
