Child Poverty strategy published today.

Let's see how much coverage this gets from people who have told us for years that they care about this stuff. I suspect it'll get a lot of "we wouldn't have child poverty if Starmer taxed the rich/ joined the EU" and the like.

There'll be that, but I'm talking about people who have professed to care about poverty. Reaction will likely be the same as the reaction to other things they've said they care about- industrial policy, workers rights, the minimum wage, renters rights, green investment, increasing unemployment benefit, more free school meals, recognizing Palestine.. Some will ignore, some will talk about the "real issues". The real issues are anything else they don't like about the government. Fewer jury trials, that's one of the real issues. Striking resident doctors. Anything.
