So the UK economic prediction for 2030 is that the poorest 95% of people will be poorer than they are today, and the poorest 33% of people will lose twice as much as the average of the 62% above them.

A Labour Party that asks Disabled People, Pensioners and people with more than 2 children to survive on less.
