Why did @jrf_uk decide we must focus on reframing poverty? It started with the change we want to make in the UK: solving poverty. That requires large scale, long term action from governments (UK, devolved, local) + businesses and employers +communities, service providers etc.1/10

Through work funded by us @policy_practice has modelled data finding even before #COVID19, financially vulnerable Londoners were facing lower living standards & higher cost of living

So a welcome, overdue and partial move. Will help those who already get some income protection for lost earnings via benefits, but do nothing for anyone else. IF we see much bigger, longer lasting lockdowns over the Autumn, local versions of the Retention Scheme will be needed

Government is putting in place the (much needed) cash to help people self-isolate. Who is (and isn't) it going to help? https://t.co/Lg4HCNvGEe

For the already food insecure, loss of income during the pandemic was catastrophic; people previously "just managing" were tipped into food insecurity. "Tactics for stretching... food budgets failed... there was little left to cut but food itself." https://t.co/YPCyvp2nXb

Without increased Sick Pay, Test & Trace may not work

[Duncan Hatfield @drh000]

If people can’t afford to self-isolate, this could seriously undermine Test & Trace’s attempts to contain COVID-19. So if we’re going to prevent recurring outbreaks, Sick Pay needs to be increased

Delighted to see Gordon Brown introducing some Three Sided philosophy into British politics. #GordonBrown @BBCr4today #Scotland

@browning_vicky haha spot on. Although "characters from movies" was also a very loose influence

@browning_vicky @CharityComms A wizard, a chicken and two footballers - isn't it obvious?

This Week In 1960: Footballers to strike against £20 per week maximum wage. (worked out alright for them in the end)

@hatfiundo really enjoyed this but it's bizarre how he just keeps launching into philosophical answers completely unprompted!
