Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Universal basic income in the United Kingdom" in English language version.
Minimum Income Guarantee "is similar to, but distinct from a Universal Basic Income (UBI), with two key differences, firstly that a UBI is for everyone irrespective of income and individual needs e.g. disability, while a MIG is means tested and targeted to those on low incomes, and secondly, that a MIG recognises that there is a role for business to help raise incomes, not just the welfare state."
But there are other things I'm in favour of, which are things like Universal Basic Income, moving to a four-day working week, reducing the working week, which, when crossed over with the rise of technology, you can begin to see an alternative for what our society looks like.
Universal basic income is, according to its many and various supporters, an idea whose time has come. The deceptively simple notion of offering every citizen a regular payment without means testing or requiring them to work for it has backers as disparate as Mark Zuckerberg, Stephen Hawking, Caroline Lucas and Richard Branson.
With the likes of Mark Zuckerberg, Stephen Hawking, Elon Musk and Bernie Sanders all proponents of a universal basic income (UBI) model, Finnish officials and participants have been inundated with media requests from around the globe.
