"New analysis from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation claims that by the end of this parliament, disposable incomes in Britain will be on average 550 lower per year than in September 2024 a fall of 1.3 per cent and 570 lower than today. This would represent the worst fall in living standards seen by any parliament since detailed records began in 1961, with the foundation warning that such a decline will prompt voters to punish Labour at the next election."
The Independent deploys reporters across issues including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, using donations to fund on-the-ground journalism and keep content free of paywalls. Funding allows journalists to investigate matters such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and to produce documentaries like 'The A Word' on American women fighting for reproductive rights. New analysis from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation projects that by the end of the parliament average disposable incomes in Britain will be around £550 lower per year than in September 2024 and £570 lower than today. The foundation warns this would be the steepest fall in living standards since 1961 and urges lifting the two-child benefit cap, creating a Universal Credit minimum floor, and permanently unfreezing Local Housing Allowance.
