In our three recent job ads, we failed to list our Equal Opportunities form & we didn't specify that we'll offer an interview to any disabled person who meets the criteria.
We've extended the deadline for all three, as we're seeking the strongest & most diverse field possible π§΅

The Basic Income Movement hosted a briefing on basic income and regrowth to MPs in Westminster last week.
It was wonderful to have the chance to speak to MPs about why #UBI is good for the economy and society. We hope MPs continue to explore the possibilities of basic income!

#UBI for creatives: could this be compensation for the rampant theft of copyright by #BigTech?
#HouseofLords told this is a "helpful suggestion".

The authors say Basic Income would create an 'income floor' no one could fall below:
- End absolute poverty
- Boost health
- Help people get back to work
"There are clear pathways to funding a pilot of sufficient size without requiring revisions to tax codes."
