3. This is brilliant! ….first posted on the Standard by Draco T Bastard

   Professor Guy Standing on ‘Why the Precariat requires a basic Income’

   … compulsory viewing especially for young people , women in unpaid caring work, the unemployed, artists…and what is left of the working class

   …in fact everyone who is not part of the 0.01 % crooks who own the wealth and control the people and the planet

   Professor Guy Standing ( Professor for Economic Security , University of Bath) is an articulate advocate for why the precariat absolutely requires a basic income …and for a redistribution of wealth

   He is really the equivalent of the old trade unionist and socialist…calling passionately for a return to an egalitarian, compassionate, just and humanitarian society…dignity and freedom for ALL
