Putting #poverty into perspective … In the middle of the 19th century, about 10% of the population were destitute … around 1.9mn to 2mn in all.
Today a report was released showing that 3.8mn people in the uk are destitute, up 60% from before Covid. We now have twice as many people in extreme poverty than 150 years ago. Further proof that our ruling “class” has no interest in maintaining a satisfactory standard of living for all. The current mob of Conservatives now destroying it.
