Latest stats: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/households-below-average-income-199495-to-201617 … … So please don't pretend this is an achievement

  I’m assuming of course that you recognise that your definition in no way shows the relative movement of those at the bottom versus the median or how far away they are from everyone else.

  How many have not? Celebrate when you can say "hand on heart" NO ONE IN GREAT BRITAIN IS LIVING IN POVERTY. Shameful. @Conservatives cannot be trusted with statistics or the economy.

  This is the trouble with the Tories, you cannot see the harm you are causing to the needy and impoverished. The damage to future communities is immeasurable. Thatchers Britain is coming to harvest, crime up, homeless up. Mental health ignored. Party of uncaring rich

  You changed the way povety is measured for your own purposes. More ppl using food banks, more homeless, 46m households in the red, 6m in financial difficulty, but we have more millionaires. 5th largest economy should have no one in povety, no matter how it's measured.
