Dear colleagues
I have just seen an article in the media
about a report from Joseph Rowntree
Foundation on poverty trends in Britain.
It seemed to be very pleased to report that
the number of families in poverty had reduced
to a mere 12m. Can this be correct? Has anyone
seen the full report? The populaiton of GB is
only 60 million. Do we really have almost
half (must be 24m idividuals) the population
in poverty? Apologies to those who always carry
this in their minds. If it is not a misprint I evidently
should do as well.
regards
Mel
