I was thinking Digital Exclusion (funny enough last night I was printing of our friends Dad's ticket for him going) or the march of the digital world (AI, CBDC,Digital Identity) and the effect on peoples jobs and do we all have to look at UBI for all - and if so, where does that money come from - and what incentives would there be for people to work? Would love to do 15 minute cities, ULEZ zones, Electric Vehicles... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example the number of people excluded from town centres because councils are going over to AppPayment only with smart phones. Many older people can’t cope and hence are being excluded, a form of age discrimination! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that you would have to get actual politicians/MPs on board, and 99% of them are a bunch of virtue signalling bandwagoners , therefore IMHO , never going to happen. 33 minutes ago, discobob said: do we all have to look at UBI for all - and if so, where does that money come from - and what incentives would there be for people to work?

That could work, be interesting if you got a look in on those questions, Im not hopeful though, the most interesting questions on QT are usually the off the cuff ones (Hands in the air type) rather than the pre booked ones.

chrisjpainter Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 Lodge a question. Then when it comes to the time you get to ask it, just rip your shirt off, sink to your knees Platoon style on stage and just scream 'what the hell are you playing at?!' and then run off, shouting 'We're all dooooomed!' That should make the news... You'll probably get arrested, but only for racism towards Scots if you lay it on too thick with 'you're all doomed!' Worth it though.

Yeah, like they'd allow that!! Good and relevant question, though. 1 hour ago, discobob said: Just been contacted - looks like I am going on Question Time tomorrow evening - just got to come up with a question that is in the news???

Before I posted this up I made a prediction, wrote it down and put it in an envelope and entrusted it to my good woman. I have just had her open it and showed her your post Grant. she now thinks I can tell the future and wants me to do the lottery 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
