Basic Income Ireland is the Irish affiliate of BIEN. We envisage an Ireland where everyone has an unconditional guaranteed basic income.

There is an inexorable logic that it should be universal, ie for all. #UBI

Myth: Universal Basic Income is a magnet for the idle. In reality, it's the catalyst for unleashed potential. Visualize a world where your next meal isn't your next worry. That world is one giant leap closer to solving the puzzles of poverty and unleashing collective brilliance.

We're looking forward to presenting our paper on how a #UBI could be paid for next Wednesday 17th April in Liberty Hall.

Those on low pay (€20,000pa) will benefit by 20%, up to 65% for the very low paid (€10,000pa)

The well off will pay slightly more, 1.4% for those on €100,000 and 2.5% for those on €300,000

Former Conservative Senator Hugh Segal went on CBC News to remind us: "Most people in poverty have jobs. Many have multiple."

#BasicIncome is a raise for working Canadians. What are you waiting for, Ottawa? 🇨🇦 #cndpoli
