Meanwhile, the Prime Minister walks in the direction of the biggest bosses
WORK does not save you from poverty, the TUC has warned as a new report exposes the “shockingly high” number of children living in poverty in working families.
The UK Poverty 2025 Report, published by the charity Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) and released today, reveals that half of children in families where at least one adult works are condemned to poverty.
It also shows that there has been no diminution in poverty in Britain for at least 20 years.
