Abstract

Gordon Brown has denounced UK child poverty rising to its ‘highest levels in living memory’ and called for a £3bn investment fund for the children of austerity. We applaud and support his intervention – child poverty has devastating impacts on children and their families, and imposes a huge cost on the whole of society .
