It was a pleasure to make the case for ambitious action to fix the global debt & tax systems at #LabourConference2025 on panels by @serauk.bsky.social @labourcid.bsky.social @chrleft.bsky.social and others. @uklabour.bsky.social has a proud legacy on development that its members want to build on

Spoke to BBC Radio London for @cafod.bsky.social on how world leaders can honour #PopeFrancis - not with words, but with action on the issues that were closest to his heart: debt justice, fair tax, wealth redistribution, climate action and building an economy that serves people and planet

@CAFOD #Jubilee2025 panel at IMF-World Bank Spring Meetings today explored solutions to the debt crisis that is trapping hundreds of millions in poverty. @Martin_M_Guzman spoke to the key problem of IMF bailouts being used to pay private lenders rather than invest in development

Pope Francis saw and spoke to a world in which the economy no longer serves ordinary people, inequality is soaring, and our natural world is in crisis. I spoke to @skynewsrss.bsky.social for @cafod.bsky.social on the legacy of a Pope who criticised an “economy that kills”
