We must keep the #CostOfLiving on the agenda. Yesterday, @gareththomasMP told the Commons “Millions of people and thousands of small businesses are locked out of #AffordableCredit” - and said the new Financial Services Bill could be a step toward fixing this. #FairBankingForAll
Gareth Thomas MP@gareththomasMP

Today in Parliament, I highlighted @NIESRorg research showing the UK economy could grow by 3.5% with stronger mutual & community banking. Millions are locked out of affordable credit. Expanding credit unions & CDFIs could change that. @FBfACampaign @CoopParty @resp_finance

"The upshot is that even pension schemes that have promised not to invest in fossil fuels have ploughed money into funds that are paying for major gas projects." @tbij investigate where UK public sector pensions are really being invested. bsky.app/profile/tbij.b…

Today, at 3rd Reading of the #PensionSchemesBill, responding to calls from Baroness Hayman, government committed to produce new guidance to clarify investment duties so pension funds can account for systemic risks like #ClimateChange. 🧵

How climate change is driving up insurance losses - new report. A couple of standout facts for me: - 'Peak losses' where there is a major event, typically a US hurricane, projected to reach $400bn by 2030. - Most losses are already not insured. swissre.com/dam/jcr:4b5669…

Thank you Martin Rhodes MP for meeting again with Glasgow residents who have lived experienced of exclusion from affordable credit. Great to discuss the #FairBankingAct as well as delivery & timelines for the government's Financial Inclusion Strategy. #FairBankingForAll

Great news for the #CreditUnion sector 🙌🙌🙌 This will mean millions more people can become credit union members and have access to affordable credit - helping families avoid high-cost credit and build financial resilience. A big win for financial inclusion. @ABCULCUs
Co-operative Party@CoopParty

A massive campaign win for our members and the credit union movement. Millions more people will have access to fairer borrowing and saving because of today's reforms. Growing credit unions, growing our movement, growing our economy.

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
