    Reeves’ growth drive rubbished by charity as report exposes scale of UK poverty

    The chancellor says growing the economy is Labour’s main priority, but the Joseph Rowntree Foundation says economic growth alone won’t pull millions out of poverty

    Reeves’ growth drive rubbished by charity as report exposes scale of UK poverty

     An influential anti-poverty charity has rubbished claims by Rachel Reeves that her growth agenda will drive up living standards in the UK as it pushes the government to strengthen Universal Credit instead of chipping away at benefits.

    The chancellor has said growing the economy is Labour’s main priority, but a report from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) has said economic growth “alone” won’t improve the lives of those struggling with the cost of living.

    It said the government must also pursue specifically targeted policies to make a meaningful change, arguing that even strong growth won’t be able to alleviate rising child poverty.
