The UK’s relative child poverty rate is higher than in any EU or EFTA nation bar Greece.
https://www.resolutionfoundation.org/publications/turning-the-tide/
On present policies and we project that UK child poverty will rise over this Parliament from an estimated 31 per cent in 2024-25 to reach 33 per cent by 2029-30, its highest rate since 1998-99, and the highest number of children on record, at 4.6 million. This includes £3 billion of scheduled welfare cuts.
