ChatGPT

Very strongly agree

No, this will encourage people not to work and harm economic growth

This answer aligns closely with Reform UK's likely views on economic policy and welfare. The party's advocacy for a smaller state, lower taxes, and a free market economy suggests it would agree that a universal basic income could disincentivize work and negatively impact economic growth. Reform UK's platform prioritizes individual responsibility and work as key to prosperity, which is in direct contrast to the idea of a universal basic income.

Strongly agree

No

Given Reform UK's emphasis on free market solutions and skepticism towards large government programs, it is likely that the party would oppose a universal basic income. The party's platform, which includes advocating for lower taxes and reducing public spending, aligns with a stance against the implementation of UBI, which would require significant government funding and administration.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Reform UK, formerly known as The Brexit Party, focuses on free market principles and reducing the role of the state in the economy. A universal basic income (UBI) program contradicts these principles by expanding state welfare provisions. While the party has not explicitly stated its position on UBI, its economic policies suggest a strong preference for minimal state intervention.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, everyone should receive an income to cover basic necessities including food and housing

Reform UK's policies and ideological stance strongly suggest that it would oppose a policy ensuring everyone receives an income for basic necessities. The party's focus on economic freedom, reducing the welfare state, and encouraging personal responsibility and work ethic are fundamentally at odds with the concept of providing a no-strings-attached income.
