The most disadvantaged people in the United Kingdom are no better-off than they were 15 years ago, according to a new report, which finds a “yawning gap between those who can get by and those stuck at the bottom.”
Actually, I’d say that many countries in the EU are doing significantly better.
Absolutely, UK is probably worse than average. In part because they are worse hit by inflation than most.
Part of the OP claim is: “people in the United Kingdom are no better-off than they were 15 years ago,”
I’d say that’s the case in most countries, the REAL problem is that a lot of poor people in UK are actually WORSE off now.
So yes UK is falling behind on how they treat the poor. Despite the rest of the world isn’t doing an amazing job either.
