Maybe the comparison with other EU nations is irrelevant anyway. Things are rapidly getting worse here by whatever measure is picked to assess progress so perhaps we should concentrate on ourselves as this could be improved with the right policies

In our early years we're usually taught that being right is a good thing, and being wrong is, well, wrong. Our self-esteem makes it difficult to consider two things separately. There are some who are ashamed of being wrong and urged to strive to be right. But then, many posts are nuanced, so if we canβt be entirely right, we can be more right than others. Or at least a bit right. Right? You've posted the exact same thing before. Why are you posting it again? You want to censor himπ±π±

How do you define poverty. In its most "dry" definition, "Households are considered to be below the UK poverty line if their income is 60% below the median household income after housing costs for that year."
