🚨REACTION: As billionaire wealth keeps surging, it’s driving deeper inequality.

Oxfam’s Climate Justice Adviser Beth John told @bbchw that while most people are struggling, the super-rich are gaining faster than ever and must be taxed fairly.

Thank you to everyone who joined for our mega In Conversation with @lewis_goodall and @Ed_Miliband yesterday at #Lab25

Wide and deep conversation on Reform, the Westminster bubble's view of climate, and of the point of politics being to argue for your values.

"I came back not just because I care about climate, but because this is the route to tackling the inequalities that scar our country" @Ed_Miliband at #LabourConference2025 pretty much summarising one of the key points of our new report on #JustTransition @oxfamgb

Starting the day with a big issue with Gobal Witness, @TaxJusticeUK @oxfamgb

How to make #PollutersPay more than a slogan, particularly for #BigOil?

[Oxfam @oxfamgb]

We were in parliament yesterday to launch our joint policy platform with @TaxJusticeUK & @Global_Witness on Taxing Polluters: for a fairer, greener society. It was great to be joined by parliamentarians from across parties to talk about policy options for making polluters pay.

We headed to Parliament for the Creative for Climate Justice exhibition - a chance for young people to use their amazing creativity to send a clear climate justice message to MPs.
Thanks to @KerryMP , who joined us to talk about this vital issue and to all the schools involved.

The biggest & wealthiest climate polluters are being allowed to get even richer while millions of people are pushed deeper into poverty by the climate crisis. We joined @GlobalJusticeUK @MakePolluterPay @Greenpeace & @BritishQuakers to tell the Government to #MakePollutersPay ✍️

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Vast inequalities are an unmistakable signal that something is deeply wrong with our social, economic, political and financial systems.

Inequalities can be beaten — if we commit to policies that promote equity rather than clinging to the same failed approaches.
