‘If you’ve had bad credit, banks label you,’
A #FairBankingAct could open doors for overlooked entrepreneurs - offering credit based on potential, not an algorithm.

The biggest review of the pensions system in a generation is underway.
We're calling for:

🚫 A phase-out of funding for fossil fuels, deforestation & other harmful industries

We call on pensions minister Torsten Bell to deliver decent pensions for all the fund our green future instead of fuelling the climate crisis. Sign the Petition.

Not only has @michaelsheen paid off the debts of hundreds of people, he's calling for big changes to the system, through a Fair Banking Act.

📢 @jrf_uk's UK Poverty 2025 report is out today, recommending action on access to #affordablecredit as part of a holistic response to #poverty and hardship.
To make this happen, we need practical measures like a Fair Banking Act.

No, we’ve not been shooting a movie… @michaelsheen was in parliament this afternoon calling for a Fair Banking Act.
It’s time to support the responsible, affordable credit providers who can serve people, businesses and communities the mainstream banks don’t
