The Issues

80% of unpayable developing country debt remains outstanding, multinational companies dodge £98 billion in taxes owed to developing countries every year and C02 emissions are at a far higher level than is safe – resulting in the deaths of 300, 000 people every year.

The world stands at a crossroads and the UK is well placed to influence its direction.

A great many new MPs were elected in the 2010 election.  It is up to you to convince them that world poverty and climate change are issues worth addressing.

The Vote Global manifesto is packed with ideas for the next government to solve the crises that we are in. It has five sections: More and better aid and debt relief, Tackling climate change, Making the global economy work for the poor, Good governance and addressing corruption, and Responding to conflict situations.
