Does Reeves care about real people who are suffering? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/06... No. I don't think she cares about Labour. Nor do I think she cares about people who're suffering in the UK. She gets her kicks from managing funds. The reality of life is not for her.

At least the plainclothes masked goons who are kidnapping people are also incompetent and reckless
Video shows two unknown men, without uniforms or identifying insignias, attacking and kidnapping a man from a Nashua, NH courthouse back in February.
During the kidnapping, the assailants, presumed to be ICE agents, knocked an elderly bystander who walks with a cane to the ground.

Time is perhaps the most precious thing we have, but do you own your own time so long as you must sell it to someone else in order to survive? Those born into wealth own their entire lifetimes. They aren't forced to sell their time. No one should be. Universal basic income is about time ownership.

One of the greatest reggae talents ever. RIP Junior, you will never be forgotten. RIP.
Very sad to hear that Junior Byles died yesterday aged 76.
A truly unique singer who sang some of the great 70s reggae tunes... Fade Away, Curly Locks, Beat Down Babylon.
This one is a personal favourite...

Universal basic income as a new social contract for the age of AI - LSE Business Review
As AI and automation displace jobs, a new social contract is needed to make sure technological progress and human welfare advance together, not at each other's expense. Universal basic income represents a promising avenue. Gisella Ponce Bertello and Teresa Almeida analyse the history of UBI and write that its successful implementation depends on sustainable funding,

This week 42 of 403 Labour MPs have warned Keir Starmer that planned disability cuts are “impossible to support” and have called for a pause and change in direction.

This is disgraceful🚨

A Universal/Unconditional Basic Income Scheme would help rebalance wealth inequality. It's well past time that the mega wealthy who gained their wealth from others hard graft paid some of it back.
No-one should be struggling to meet the basics of living, while a minority horde wealth.
