JRF Viewpoint: Is poverty in the UK a denial of people's human rights?

** Just published on the Joseph Rowntree Foundation website:

* Is poverty in the UK a denial of people's human rights?
Failure to incorporate the principles of the UN Convention on
Economic, Social and Cultural Rights into UK law has compounded
social attitudes that denigrate people who experience poverty and
undermine popular support for eradicating poverty, argues Damian
Killeen.
