The number of children living in poverty across the UK has reached a new record high, according to figures from the Department for Work and Pensions.
Some 4.45 million children were estimated to be in households in relative low income, after housing costs, in the year to March 2024.
This is up from the previous record of 4.33 million in the 12 months to March 2023. It is the highest figure since comparable records for the UK began in 2002-2003.
A household is considered to be in relative poverty if it is below 60 per cent of the median income after housing costs.
A small number of multi-billionaires and a squad of bootlicking lackeys are responsible for this and for similar things across the planet.
None of the standard ways of doing things are going to solve this problem.
The small number of multi-billionaires must be dealt with.
