A Welsh budget without women? The failure to meaningfully consider women's needs and experiences completely undermines the Welsh Governments ability to budget responsibly and fairly for all, says Hannah Griffiths from @waleswbg.bsky.social Read her reflections on the Welsh Budget in our new blog

Together with @swbg.bsky.social NI WBG and @waleswbg.bsky.social we’re urging the Chancellor to scrap the two-child limit in full in the autumn budget. It's a major driver of child poverty across the country. www.bigissue.com/news/social-...

If you have less than £10 million in cash & assets, our #WealthTax won't cost you a penny. If you do? Lucky you! You're one of the 20,000 richest people in the UK. Our wealth tax would still only cost you 2p in every £1 over £10 million. Our own Fariya Mohiuddin on @waleswbg.bsky.social's podcast

As we’ve hopped over from X, we thought it would be a good time to re-introduce ourselves. We’re the Wales Women’s Budget Group, and we consult with the Welsh Government on fair and equal taxation for women and minority groups and campaign for a fair and gender-equal economy for all women in Wales.
