Joseph Rowntree Foundation @jrf_uk... devastating data out today

The number of children living in DESTITUTION has TRIPLED in 5 yrs to ONE MILLION CHILDREN.

6th largest economy in the world and Tories are hell bent on destroying everything & creating further division.

They are a disgrace.

I grew up in poverty in 1960s and it's hard for these kids, very hard.
