Bitcoin Policy UK

Bitcoin Policy UK are delighted to announce that Susie Violet Ward, a founding member of BPUK, has been appointed as our new CEO. Full press release below.

Two years ago, when I wrote about the dangers of the Online Safety Bill in @CityAM, I said: “Perhaps a solution is to stop normalising giving addictive tech to children under 16 so we can allow their brains to mature before being exposed to the world wide web.” Instead? We got…

The UK is so screwed (as if we didn’t know)! They slashed capital gains allowances to boost revenue. Instead, high earners left the country. Receipts dropped by 18%. That’s a £2.7 billion shortfall! Has no one in government heard of the Laffer Curve? ft.com/content/8d8e18…

In @CityAM in August 2023 I warned the Online Safety Bill would threaten encryption, empower unaccountable regulators and create the illusion of safety. Now @UKLabour claims it’s protecting children from harmful content. In reality: - Kids use VPNs - Adults lose privacy -…

The UK spent £22 million PER HOUR on national debt interest in June alone. £16.4 billion in total. Just on interest, mind you. Servicing the debt, not bringing it down. It's good (albeit sobering) to see more articles in the mainstream press on this. Next - fixing it?

Thank you so much @LawrenceLepard for making this happen. So grateful for your generosity and support. We survived the Amazon ordeal. Looking forward to seeing these spark some important conversations.

Labour is losing key Treasury advisers just as the real work begins. - They want to boost productivity. - They talk about investment. - They flirt with deregulation. But they still ignore the most powerful tool capable of doing all three. Bitcoin could be their greatest…

A huge thank you to @LawrenceLepard for generously donating 60 copies of his book "The Big Print: What Happened to America and How Sound Money Will Fix It". Pick up your free copy at our stand B4 during the #LabourConference 2025, 28 Sept - 1 Oct, Exhibition Centre, Liverpool.

Thanks to every one of the 50,000 people who responded to the Bank of England's CBDC consultation. An overwhelming response, and overwhelmingly opposed to these instruments of surveillance and control. It may seem hard to make a difference, but together, we CAN effect change.

The Bank of England is considering ditching its digital pound. A welcome move. 'Britcoin' was destined to flop and burn taxpayer money. But don’t cheer too soon… the stablecoin route is still wide open, and that’s just a CBDC via the back door.

A big shout out to Susie Violet Ward, CEO of @BitcoinPolicyUK, for coming to our event last night. @DecentraSuze and her team of volunteers work super hard behind the scenes to promote Bitcoin education to our country’s decision-makers. You can also now find her on @RoxomTV!

This podcast episode was originally published by Archie on the @BTC_Archive podcast on 10 July 2025. @DecentraSuze and @freddienew explore the challenges of regulatory hurdles, the potential of Bitcoin mining for energy solutions, and more. fountain.fm/episode/Da3ZLJ…

BlackRock’s buying more BTC than is even mined each day. But sure, the supply crunch is a myth. In my chat with @DecentraSuze, we talk OTC drain, ETF gobbling, and the great Bitcoin squeeze. #Bitcoin #Crypto #SupplyShock #BTC @RoxomTV

More People Are Turning to Bitcoin for Long-Term Savings 👇🏼 @ztownsend w/ @DecentraSuze

We look forward to engaging with Labour party members and politicians alike at the Labour Conference 2025. Securing a stand at the conference is a big step forward - enabling us to bring the message of financial inclusion and fairness directly into the room, and also to engage…

You’ll have seen a lot in the press this weekend on the government’s plans to sell its confiscated Bitcoin. This thread is to set out what we actually know about the likely process, and what’s likely to happen absent a change in law. TLDR: Any sale will happen largely because…

No new info, no depth, just sensationalism over substance. The Telegraph just dropped another lazy, clickbait Bitcoin article. It tries to link the UK’s budget deficit to government crypto procurement and floats the idea of selling 61,250 bitcoin right in the middle of a bull…

A big thank you to @bohogelato in Brighton for the delicious ice creams; to @Musqet_Bitcoin for processing our Bitcoin payments seamlessly, and to @CoinCorner for the Bolt gift cards (first Bitcoin purchase today for my kids). And to @btcmap for the location!!

“I do find this all fascinating. I don't think we have heard the last of it. This is gonna be the thing of the future!” - Ali Miraj, LBC Today I joined Ali on @LBC to talk about Bitcoin including the GENIUS Act, Elizabeth Warren’s concerns, and growing interest from pension…
