Why debt justice?
Debt has been used for centuries as a tool of exploitation - leading to increased poverty and inequality in the global south.
Debt is used in the UK to punish the poor in a system that is rigged for the rich and wealthy.
This injustice CAN be stopped

Sound analysis and rational economics from Tim Jones.
Ahead of the UK budget, government debt has dominated headlines. Threat of a UK “debt crisis” is used to justify cuts in welfare and public services.
But the story is far more nuanced and the REAL global debt crisis isn’t getting nearly enough attention. @tim-jones6.bsky.social explains

The Budget Must Address the Household Debt Crisis
The cost-of-living crisis isn’t over. Unemployment and bankruptcies are rising, and more than 10 million people are affected by growing household debt. This budget is a crucial moment for action.

Solidarity and respect to all those who have campaigned long and hard for this cruel policy to be lifted.
We know households with children are disproportionately likely to be in a negative budget, or struggling with heavy debt. This is an important change, long overdue, but warmly welcomed.

High value council tax surcharge is welcome - councils are desperately underfunded and more revenue is always welcome.
However, this does nothing to address the burden council tax places on low-income households. The £8bn of debt will only increase.
