Publisher's Synopsis
Whose wealth is it anyway? It's mine - All mine. What is? The clothes on my back before they go to the charity shop? My pay day loan or my lottery ticket ? The tins in the cupboard before they go to the food bank or after they have been to the food bank? Whose are the rent arrears and the UK Gross National Debt? In this provocative book Andy Mitchell surveys the scene in 'austerity' Britain through the words of the great first century activist and teacher - Jesus - while using British examples from newspaper and magazine articles from 2010 to 2015. -Poverty, partying, money and income and incentives are included. -Questions around tithing and taxation, charity and wealth creation, possessions and inheritance are studied. -'Are we all in this together?' How can I deal with having too much and how can I cope with having too little? Whose wealth is it anyway? Cover photo credit Claire Campbell Smith
