Excellent work a txt alert once it was deemed safe to return home, gratefully received. a PM begin a PRESS Conference (not a Covid briefing) of all the days happenings detailing some of todays important issues an announcement of the carefully thought out by experts decision to complete the full 7 days lockdown as advertised (some people criticised the shortness of the previous 3 day lockdown) Some people just love a good cheese with their half empty WHINE. ....
More evidence that UBIs work The report is back on another Universal Basic Income trial, this time in the USA.

Perhaps the most pernicious effect of our conventional targeted benefit welfare (and the one that personally first clued me into the whole idea of a UBI over 20 yrs ago) is what happens when you try to transition ....
Cricklewood 3 Have to say the recent comments from Jacinda regarding calling out those not following the rules is a miss step I know she said to do it nicely etc but from what I ve seen today at least some people havent seen that part.
