Synopsis

Levels of deprivation in the UK are the highest in recent history. But how did we get here – and what can be done to turn the tide? Joanna Mack traces it back to decades of political choices that have left millions unable to withstand the turmoil of the 2020s. Urgent, evidence-based and forward-looking, Impoverished is a blueprint for renewal.
