Universal basic income is a great idea, which is also why it won't happen

@PapaD "What could you do with an extra £400 a month - pretty sure you wouldn't give up your job for it, because even minimum wage is nearly three times that."

An average salary pays more than that in tax,... so I'm a little confused, is this £400 a tax break? If we are giving working people tax breaks, where do we get the cash to pay those that aren't working £400?

Just where does the money come from please?
