No wonder academics are so incensed. Not all academic publishers are the same - many excellent university presses invest in scholarship and the academy instead of shareholder dividends. https://t.co/0fMZncVOXi

It seems like even those who argue against #BasicIncome think it would be good for society. They just don't believe we can make it happen. But as #NelsonMandella famously said "It always seems impossible until it's done." #LSEBeveridge - Tonight's audience was in favour of UBI

Thought-provoking article by @soniasodha about #basicincome Whilst it's important we balance the advantages #UBI could bring with the abuses it could suffer in implementation, it's definitely not an idea to be dismissed at this stage - thoughts @StewartLansley @worktilllate ? https://t.co/AONJvA9Q0F

Why a universal basic income is no panacea & the left should choose the fight for economic power over the fight for a dribble of cash. My Guardian column:
