Citizen's Income: A proposal for fairer welfare system

Image
In the run-up to Christmas it is easy to forget those in our own communities who are less fortunate than ourselves, people who cannot afford to buy the essentials and struggle to make ends meet. Many of these people are working incredibly hard for very little. Charities do fantastic work to attempt to mitigate the effects of low-pay, spiraling rents and a shrinking of the welfare state. However it cannot be left to volunteers to pick up the pieces of failed Government policy. Citizen's Income: A progressive approach to welfare Universal Basic Income (or Citizen's Income, CI) is a policy that has long been championed by the Greens. It allows for a society beyond the complex benefits system of today. Under CI, every citizen over the age of 18 is provided with an unconditional basic payment (£80 pw proposed by the Green Party).

On Tuesday North Oxfordshire Green Party's 2017 Parliamentary Candidate Ian Middleton delivered Oxfordshire Green Party's formal response to Cherwell District Council's Partial Review of their Local Plan which calls for the removal of large portions of Green Belt to the North of Oxford. The review, being championed by Councillor Barry Wood, the Conservative leader of the council, is seeking to build 4400 new homes on ancient green belt land in Begbroke, Yarnton, Kidlington, Woodstock and surrounding areas. The Green Party response highlights large areas of inconsistency, poor planning and lack of evidence within the review and disputes the council's claims that they have established the exceptional circumstances that are required by national planning guidelines to remove land from the green belt. Ian Middleton said : "It's clear to anyone reading the Council's review that these plans have not been properly thought through.  It's not so much a...
