Battery storage costs have plummeted. Solar is cheap. UK rooftops have 117 GW of potential. Solar + batteries can be installed quickly. Just what we need when horrendous wars remind us we need to get off fossil fuels as soon as possible. about.bnef.com/insights/clean…

This is also why we're calling for a #FairBankingAct - to help remove barriers which stop credit unions and other purpose-finance institutions from growing and thriving.
Co-operative Party@CoopParty

Britain gave the world the co-operative movement. So why do only 3% of us belong to a credit union, against 75% in Ireland, 48% in the USA, 43% in Canada? Credit union membership is growing, but the common bond cap is holding credit unions back. It's time for common bond reform.

.@The_TUC Pensions Conference has got to be the best in town. Key topics include: how the Government's reforms will make pensions work for people on lower incomes; how workers can have greater control over their savings; and how to overcome all the "waffle"! #TUCPensions2026

The stigma of being in debt often keeps people silent. In fact, nearly half of people tell no-one. We need to change that. Join us in challenging stigma around debt and help people access the support they need. #daw2026 #debtawarenessweek #debt #debtadvice

It's great to see more action from govt in support of community finance. We want to see a #FairBankingAct so thousands more businesses can get the support they need to grow and thrive. Find out more here - financeinnovationlab.org/our-work/grow/… #FairBankingForAll @FBfACampaign

Community banks unlock funding for small businesses & provide affordable loans when people need them most. They’re a powerful force in the US but still far too limited here in the UK. That needs to change. @resp_finance @TheFinanceLab @CoopParty 🧵1/3 cityam.com/small-business…

"5.2 billion people live in countries where debt payments are higher than total social spending." We are in the midst of the "worst debt crisis ever" - and we need fundamental reform to fix it & stop another happening. Powerful from @MatthewMartinUK equals.ink/p/debt-justice…

Today marks the final Committee stage of the #PensionSchemesBill. Peers will debate amendments on climate and nature loss, including a P4P cross-party amendment (218A) to help pension managers factor long-term systemic climate and nature risks into investment decisions

Even after the UK phased out coal power, pension schemes are still financing coal overseas. This risks savers’ money and the climate — which is why peers are calling for stronger Government action via the Pension Schemes Bill. 👉 filab.uk/4rUMbU1 @LINGOInitiative

UK pension funds are still financing coal expansion abroad — despite the UK phasing out coal at home. “It is absurd that our pension funds continue to finance its expansion overseas.” Our new briefing shows why it’s time to divest. 👉 filab.uk/3O07Qvn

More than £10.5bn of UK pension savings are invested in thermal coal - the world’s dirtiest fossil fuel. That’s bad for pension savers, the economy, and the climate. Read our new research with @LINGOInitiative filab.uk/3ZNdX8O

This new UN report is truly shocking: globally, THIRTY TIMES as much finance flows to nature-destroying activities as to nature-supporting activities. Finance harmful to nature reached $7.3 trillion, while investments in nature-based solutions were only $0.22 trillion in 2023.

Without changes to ensure everyone can save enough, pensioner poverty will only grow. We’re developing proposals for a minimum pension saving level which could deliver a decent retirement income for all. Read our latest blog: filab.uk/3O0pOh1 #FairPensions
