Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury & supporter of our #WealthTax campaign & me quoted in @ChurchTimes for @JustMoneyMvt condemning cuts in today’s #SpringStatement as morally wrong, call instead for a #WealthTax to help build communities where we can all flourish:
Church Times@ChurchTimes

The former Archbishop of Canterbury Lord Williams said that “growth alone” would not build a just society, and called for a wealth tax to “address the soaring inequality that is so deeply damaging to our collective morale and trust” #SpringStatement #Echobox=1743010566-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2025/…

It was great to chat to @UCBNewsTeam for @JustMoneyMvt on the thorny issue of tax evasion raised by the @CommonsPAC report last week, why we should care about addressing this as an issue of fairness as well as a way to raise revenue to help those in need in our society.
UCB News@UCBNewsTeam

Why did #tax evasion cost the #UK at least £5.5bn between 2022-2023? And should #Christians be paying attention to the issue? UCB News hears from @JustMoneyMvt's Sarah Edwards. Listen 🎧: timbre-player.sharp-stream.com/embed/item/bc4…

As Mandela inspired us then, let his words inspire us again: poverty is not natural - it is man-made and it can be overcome. One area that must change is our tax rules. You can email your MP to call for a wealth tax here: justmoney.eaction.org.uk/WealthTax

Congrats to @ONECampaign for bringing us together for this event. Notable progress in tackling extreme poverty since then but nearly half world’s pop still live on less than $7/day. Our world faces growing inequality, climate crisis, conflict, unfair finance, tax & trade rules.

At #Mandela20 event for @JustMoneyMvt recalling Nelson Mandela urging us to Make Poverty History in Trafalgar Sq 20 yrs ago and his words: “As long as poverty, injustice and gross inequality persist, none of us can truly rest.”

While victims of systemic failures like the Horizon scandal wait decades for justice, the Govt seems to be bending over backwards for the wealth defence lobby. Extending tax breaks for nondoms is a slap in the face to hardworking ppl who play by the rules independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

"We have been listening to the concerns that have been raised by the non-dom community" – the Chancellor Rachel Reeves. What about the concerns of normal people who pay their tax and can't get a GPs appointment, or are on a waiting list, or whose child is in a crumbling school?

Pleased to sign on to this letter for @JustMoneyMvt about the dangers of govt considering more financial deregulation - we need the finance sector to work for people and planet not cause more harm.
Positive Money UK 🦋 @positivemoneyuk.bsky.social@PositiveMoneyUK

📢 Economists are ringing the alarm against cutting rules for big finance. "beyond a certain point, the financial sector can only continue to grow by taking excessive risks and increasing the economy’s debt burden until the inevitable collapse." theguardian.com/business/2024/…

Really helpful analysis of today’s pensions announcement and how much more is needed to secure a liveable future for us all & the planet:
Jesse Griffiths@JesseLGriffiths

The Chancellor’s plan for pension ‘megafunds’ is a welcome step in the ‘biggest pension reforms in decades’. However, far more ambition is needed in the next stage if we are to truly fix our broken pension system. What could reforms include? 🧵 theguardian.com/business/2024/… /1
