Poverty and Inequality in Britain Today - Conference in York
“Truth, Lies and the Spirit Level” is a conference which aims to look at some of the facts about poverty and the people who are affected; the myths propagated about benefit claimants; and how societies work better when inequality is minimised. We will also examine York’s recent resolve to become a poverty-free city and the steps being taken to implement it. We aim to join the dots between poverty, inequality, quality of life, perception and
