“The poorest fifth of the population are now much poorer [in the UK] than most of the poorest countries in central and eastern Europe,” says @MyStephanomics. “They would be better off in quite poor countries in the European Union.”
Thrilled to be one of the judges today but what a difficult decision! All three projects are fantastic and have such an important contribution to make to Glasgow’s sustainable future. There is still time left to contribute to each of their crowdfunds…

How do we fix the NHS in Scotalnd? By tackling the social causes behind health inequalities
@MichaelMarmot here cites our own Closing the Gap report to set out how Scotland can create a better society

The richest 1% own 46% of the world's wealth, Sarah shows. This is not an accident - it is the result of the way our economy is designed, she tells us. Growing inequality is undermining the fabric of our society. This can change! #GCPHsem19 @DemocracyCollab
