More Than 11 Million Uk Citizens Are Living In Absolute Poverty
44 Answers
Yesterday I posted the above piece of information in a thread – due to 13 years of incompetent Tory governments, there are now more than 11 million UK citizens living in absolute poverty.
The generally accepted definition of Absolute Poverty being – is a condition where household income is below a necessary level to maintain basic living standards (food, shelter, housing), that’s the reality for more than 11 million UK citizens.
Some people responded to my post, pointing out that this was complete nonsense; some even claiming no one is living in poverty – well the link below from the House of Commons Library (poverty statistics, published on 6 April 2023) shows that 11.4 million UK citizens were in absolute low income (absolute poverty) in 2021/2022.
Given the appalling record of the Tory government, that figure is certain to increase for the period 2022/2023.
