Poorer families will find it ‘near impossible’ to afford food and bills, report warns

New analyzes from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation claim that at the end of this parliament, the disposable revenues in the UK will be 550 £ lower than September 2024 – a decrease of 1.3 percent – and today will be 570 £ less than today.
This will represent the worst decline in living standards seen by any Parliament since the beginning of detailed records in 1961, and the Foundation warned that such a decline would encourage voters to punish labor in the next elections.

JRF’s modeling estimates that disposable revenues decreased by 0.5 percent in the first five years of the 2020s, so families are now at the risk of seeing falling revenues and living standards for ten years.
In the report, there is a gap between low -income and medium or high income, and in ten years between September 2019 and September 2029, one -third of their income, the disposable income of families will fall $ 1.110 (6.2 percent) per year.
In the meantime, medium and high -income families will see that their revenues fell by £ 380 (1.1 percent) per year and 970 £ (1.3 percent) per year.
