It does suck having to face the consequences of your actions

Hear me out, wouldn't it make more sense as a Matter of national security for us to nationalise the farming industry, pay the farmers a salary and running food production at a loss in order to make food resources available for all

Hmmm, how many would have voted for Brexit despite being told this could happen.

I support a basic income for all, not for interest groups. Its the universality that matters.
