We've carried out groundbreaking research that captures public attitudes towards a Universal Basic Income in NI for the first time. Listen to our co-founder @PatrickBrownMLA talking about the findings on @bbcradioulster
Our exciting new polling shows that 62% of people in NI support UBI!
This research, carried out by @LucidTalk in May, shows that when those for or against UBI are considered, a massive 62% would like to see it introduced here. So let's make it happen!
