The Finnish government is considering a pilot project that would see the state pay people a basic income regardless of whether they work.

The details of how much the basic income might be and who would be eligible for it are yet to be announced, but already there is widespread interest in how it might work.

Prime Minister Juha Sipila has praised the idea. "For me, a basic income means simplifying the social security system," he said.

The scheme is of particular interest to people without jobs. In Finland, they now number 280,000 - 10% of the workforce.
With unemployment an increasing concern, four out of five Finns now are in favour of a basic income.

Basic income

Paid without any need for work
Paid irrespective of any income from other sources
Additional income subject to income tax
Finland to initiate pilot project
Dutch city of Utrecht to experiment with basic income this autumn
UK Green Party advocated similar "Citizen's Income" at 2015 election

Guy said on Newsnight that with the Basic Income then the unemployed would likely take up more part-time work.
