Change the World This Election with Action Aid

Help change the world this election with Action Aid UK, and give up to 72 million children worldwide the chance of an education. ActionAid research has uncovered that developing countries lose up to $160 billion a year to tax dodging by multinational corporations, and now is the time to make a stand against this.

Now is a great time to make a difference with the upcoming election, and if we stand together and show all the parties that we want the end of tax dodging and start to put a tiny Robin Hood tax on bankers, developing countries would have billions of extra pounds every year to spend on education and eradicating hunger. By emailing local party candidates in the run up to the election, you can let your voice be heard, along with thousands of others, that you want change and you want it today, not tomorrow.

With over a 1 billion people currently going hungry across the globe, alongside 72 million children who miss out on an education due to lack of money, now is the time to take action. The global financial crisis continues to effect those who did the least to create it. Action Aid’s mission is simple – to make sure whoever gets elected achieves tax justice, and quickly. Their sensible solutions could generate billions of extra pounds, not just for poor countries, but also the UK. With the general election just around the corner, this is a marvellous opportunity to get every politician behind Action Aid’s mission for tax justice.
