New Chancellor faces big decisions


Take part in our 2 minute action to ensure George Osborne makes the right choice when he announces the emergency Budget on 22 June. He can avoid raising taxes on ordinary people by asking for a fairer contribution from the financial sector.

With George Osborne set to announce the emergency budget on 22 June we have taken over the billboards in Westminster tube station to send our message to the new coalition government loud and clear:

Tax rises such as VAT are regressive and will hit the poorest hardest. Having already committed to a bank tax, the government must now live up to its progressive rhetoric by ensuring this raises £20bn a year to help fight poverty and climate change at home and abroad.

Whilst MPs will see our billboards on their way to work, we want your messages to be waiting for George when he opens his inbox. With only a few days to go until the emergency budget there is still all to play for.
