Out today, Episode 10: Below the Breadline, where is the way out of poverty?

“Sustained rises in child and pensioner poverty are clearly linked to policy changes over last few years, it is unacceptable in today’s society and the picture is getting worse, we are calling on government to redress this”

The Real Agenda talks to Claire Ainsley about the state of poverty and what we can do to end the misery. Claire is the Executive Director of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation which has been working to solve UK poverty for decades. In-work poverty has been rising even faster than employment, 4m million workers are living in poverty & also 4.1 million children are in poverty, and its getting worse.
