📢 Rally outside the Treasury 🪧 5pm Tuesday 25th March

Next week John, Chancellor Rachel Reeves will announce the government’s spring budget. 

 

She could choose to tax extreme wealth and invest in public services - or double down on cuts to welfare that will wreak harm and suffering on millions - with health and disability-related benefits in the firing line.  

 

We can’t stay silent. Join us outside the Treasury to tell the Chancellor to tax the super-rich!

đź“… Tuesday 25th March
⏰ 5-7 PM
📍 HM Treasury, 1Horse Guards Road, London, SW1A 2HQ

Expect speeches, music, and a good atmosphere; friends, family, and pets welcome!

 

Inequality is soaring, the climate is collapsing, and public services are at breaking point. We need huge public investment to fix these crises - yet time and again, we’re told there’s “not enough money”. Meanwhile, the obscene wealth of the super-rich grows, largely untaxed.

 

But the money is there. A windfall tax on banks could bring in almost £15 billion - that’s more than double the £6 billion in cuts being floated by the government. [1]

 

We must demand fair taxation to fund our future.

 

That’s why next Tuesday, we’re standing arm in arm together with dozens of groups and organisations to show solidarity, say NO to more austerity, and get our voices heard. 

 

RSVP now to help make sure the Chancellor gets the message.

Hope to see you there,

 

Hannah, Positive Money
