@kityates Kit, please just ignore if no interest / no time, I really appreciate the invaluable commentary from you & #IndependentSage - but I have been intrigued to discover the resonances from 1796 when the 21-yr old #JaneAusten started writing #PrideAndPrejudice, & how her characters encapsulate perspectives dividing #UKpolitics then & now.

@Tony_Meredith Thanks for drawing my attention to the relevance of #PrideAndPrejudice to #UKpolitics today. 225 years ago #Britain had a #Tory #PrimeMinister pushing for a fairer society with a #LivingIncome & an expansion of #WelfareBenefits. He was supported by many enlightened landowners but undermined by proponents of low taxes, #TrickleDownEconomics, & #charity. All astutely observed by #JaneAusten!

CW: UK Politics; Poverty Crisis
43% of households - 30 million people - will be unable to afford a decent standard of living by 2024
That includes almost 90% of single parents & 50% of workers with children
This is truly horrific
Do you think a #LivingIncome the best way to address this? That’s the #NewEconomicsFoundation proposal - v interesting
