Oxfam shops, I learned today, use Barclays card readers.

As a matter of basic ethics why is Oxfam still giving business to Barclays, the biggest funder in Europe of fossil fuels, when Oxfam well knows the terrible consequences of the climate and ecological crisis in the Global South hard.

UPDATE: I had a very amicable conversation with the friendly chap from #Barclays.

I told him why I wasn’t happy to see Barclays here. He listened, understood and noted my feedback, which will be added to their End of Day Summary for the bank to read.

#Activism doesn’t have to consist of grand gestures, it can work at the (seemingly) smallest of levels and you never know what effect it might have.

Looks like Europe’s biggest investor in fossil fuels is here for the day. No thank you, #Barclays — I’m with #Triodos, the UK’s most ethical bank.

Barclays is Europe's biggest funder of fossil fuels in a climate crisis.

We staged an intervention at over 100 branches and offices. Talking to people about switching banks and telling the world the truth.

Fantastic #ClimateJusticeCoalition march in Newcastle upon Tyne today, a reminder that all the crises we face are intertwined and “their struggles are our struggles”.

As we marched up Northumberland Street, #ExtinctionRebellion paused to highlight that Barclays bank is Europe’s No.1 funder of fossil fuels and the 7th largest in the world.

Banking ethically is one of the most powerful things we can do as individuals.
