#inflaton #foodbanks & the #Tories' #engineeredpoverty
More on #engineeredpoverty (previously #costoflivingcrisis):
The CAB's new research on #energypoverty suggests around 5M households are currently behind with the energy bills, with more & more of their clients struggling to pay energy bills (even when they take on additional #debt) to do so.
A growing number of households who come to the CAB for advice are unable to match their income to their necessary outgoings.
