On 24th October 2023, The Guardian reported that “The Tories have created a new poverty – one so deep and vicious it requires Victorian vocabulary“.
Is this what conservative parties across the globe mean when they say “Make our country great again”?
All around the world, the rich are getting richer and have profiteered off Covid, while the rest of us have got relatively poorer; especially in the wake of the post-pandemic inflation.
Now, imagine a world in where politicians actually represent all people – not only the rich. What would that look like?
Would you imagine a world in which you can continue a decent life even if you loose your job? Would you imagine a world in which tax is put to good use, to make life better for everyone? Would you imagine a world with a generous UBI?
I do imagine a better future. A future with a UBI. Many agree that a UBI is the way forward, because it is the best and only way we know to ensure that we all are able to live a respectable life.
Can you imagine a better world? Can you suggest a better way forward?
