In today's Budget, the Chancellor spoke about building the economy “brick by brick” but left out the very foundation that underpins it all: nature.
The same Government that promised to restore our natural world appears instead to have wiped it from their agenda.

April 2022 Income Tax Threshold £12,570
April 2031 Income Tax Threshold £12,570
Should be about £16,970.
Meaning every person earning £16,970 or more is paying £1,231.86 more in tax.
Threshold freezes are a tax on the poorest.

Emissions up to now already lock-in a return to the Pliocene - 3C hotter and sea-levels eventually ~ 20m higher
Emissions need to fall by at least 50% in 48 months
The last thing we need is more effing oil and gas

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population.
How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich?
They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

But we can’t upset the banks in a neoliberal consensus now, can we?
UK govt can save over £20bn a year by ending payment of interest on commercial banks’ central bank reserves.
Subsidy implemented after the 2007-08 crash. Banks are very profitable.
Since 2023, the EU stopped paying interest on central bank reserves.
UK can find better uses of £20bn+.
