Our latest @Money_Advice report sets out how inflation impacts our clients. And it's grim, esp for renters and single-adult hhs: more face deficit budgets, w a 21% increase in av value of rent and energy arrears since last yr. But a new govt presents a new chance for change....

Great read! It's important that this govt act on tackling debt and growth in tandem. We've seen debt fueled growth in the past - and while that might boost growth figures, it's not in anyone's interests long term.
