It's interesting that 'poverty' and food banks started increasing as wages started going up and unemployment started falling, and also when the Govt. introduced the living wage.

And the JRF ? Not exactly politically-central, and anyway, in light of the sort of organisations they funded in the past and still do, a thoroughly unpleasant one too..
Has unemployment really started falling though.
