"Redistributing the personal tax allowance and developing the idea of universal basic services (UBS)
could offer a more promising alternative. This calls for more and
better quality public services that are free to those who need them,
regardless of ability to pay. Healthcare and education are obvious
examples, and it is argued that a similar approach should be applied to
areas such as transport, housing, social care and information – everyday
essentials that should be available to all."

I'm not sure the results are all in yet, but this is a thoughtful view of the idea so far.
