Holyrood could have radical opportunity to introduce basic income system

SCOTLAND has a “radical opportunity” to introduce a universal basic income (UBI), with the next Scottish Parliament expected to have a majority of MSPs who back the idea, campaigners have said. During the first leaders’ debate of the election, most parties – the Greens, Labour and the LibDems – said they were in favour of introducing a system where the Government guarantees a regular minimum income to every citizen. The Tories were the only party to rule it out, with leader Douglas Ross saying he was “not convinced by the argument”. Nicola Sturgeon revealed the SNP’s manifesto would set out steps towards introducing a universal basic income, even without the full powers over tax and social security required to implement it fully.
