Economia is the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales's magazine and each year they have a top 50 of those influencing the profession using Twitter. This year's top 10, recently announced, is as follows:
That's three tax justice people (Alex Cobham, Naomi Fowler who runs the Taxcast, and me) in the top ten, plus Paul Lewis and Jo Maugham, both of whom I would call decided friends of the cause.
I'm pretty chuffed about that.
Now try calling us outsiders.
And if you're on Twitter - give them a follow.

Matt Chorley? Of The Times?
He writes The Red Box
And yes, I do read it, every day
I think knowing what those I do not agree with think is pretty important

Nothing
I never claimed he had
Economia 50 is not about tax justice
It so happens we have three of the top 10
Sorry, of course. But what has he done to influence chartered accountants? Is his place in the Economia rankings because of Red Box?
I presume so
Accountants nominated him
As they did the likes of me
