Northams 2019
This was a debate tournament in the British Parliamentary debate format, the Northams 2019 was held (or started on) 1/25/2019. I tried to write down all the motions from all the rounds, but if any of them are missing or are wrong, please contact me and I will change them.
Here are the motions:
Round 1: This House Supports universal basic income rather than conditional welfare programs (such as unemployment and food stamps).

Round 3: Given political feasibility, TH prefers a carbon tax to cap-and-trade.
