Strongly disagree

No

Given Volt UK's progressive stance on social welfare and economic policies, it is unlikely they would outright reject the concept of a universal basic income. Their focus on innovative solutions to economic and social issues suggests a predisposition towards exploring and potentially supporting UBI as a means to combat inequality and ensure a basic standard of living for all.

Very strongly disagree

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

Volt UK, with its progressive and forward-thinking platform, is likely to disagree with the notion that a universal basic income would discourage work and harm economic growth. Instead, they might argue that UBI can stimulate economic activity by increasing purchasing power and providing financial security, which in turn can foster innovation and productivity. This perspective is in line with their broader vision of creating an inclusive and equitable society through modern policy solutions.
